December 27th was the 3 month anniversary of this forum going "live" - since then we have seen very strong support from the community !
During this time, we have had 763 people sign up - with several thousand more "guests" regularly reading posts as well.
We have averaged over 8 new users every single day since go live, with at least one new user every day except Christmas day and the Monday before Christmas.
There have been 1351 new threads, averaging over 13 new threads every day, and 8637 posts in these three months, at an average of over 88 new posts every day.
Over 26GB of traffic has been transferred from the site, with 4,559,627 requests - 811,335 of which were for pages (the rest are images and such) !
There were 12,023 unique hosts (computers) served in this time - but of course most people would use several different host names over the period of several months, so it is difficult to tell how many unique users there have been.
