sagemath.org 2010 stats

Visits: 1,030,456 ... +32% from last year.
Best month November, with nearly 100,000 visits.
Unique Visitors (this is the number from above minus the ones who come back)
607,882 ... +34 % from last year.
So, more than half a million only came by for once, nearly 120,000 2
times, ... and those are interesting:
~31,000 for 26-50 times
~21,000 for 51-100 times
~14,500 for 101-200 times
~30,000 for more than 200 times
Notice, the number for 201+ is again higher! So, somebody might argue
that the sum of those who visit the site 25 or more times is the
regular user-base of Sage. Let's say it's 100,000 and have a party ;)
(I have no idea how big the errors are, but sounds reasonable)

linux/32bit details ... well:
top 1-9 is some version with ubuntu in the name. then is opensuse at
10. with 3.5% ... that means all distributions are by far dominated by
ubuntu.
64bit is roughly the same picture, except that fedora 4.5.3 is at
position 6, all others are ubuntu.
Final words, this was acquired through the analytics JavaScript and
therefore part of the visitors with disabled JavaScript or blocking
the script are not included.
