I'm really curious where the data comes from.

And is it saying that roughly 10,000 different users visit each month?

So "if" all that data is true - I would be worried about what they know about the USA visitors to the site :o

80% of statistics on the internet are made up.

Hmmm...interesting.

It looks like they get their statistics after the site operators include a piece of Javascript code in every page they want statistics on. I assume that this code reports back to Quantcast. I don't know whether this is tracking via cookies or what.

It was interesting to review some of the other sites they have listed, including Margaritaville.com.

I gotta get me some of this data for *my* site. :pirate:

Interesting. Of course data quality is a question, but given what's there and comparing BN to M'ville...

M'ville's visitors are a bit younger, better educated and wealthier than BNers. M'ville gets more unique visitors and less frequent visitors (shoppers?). I was intrigued by the two big spikes in M'ville website hits and tied those back to two Buffett-related news events...the French customs adventure and the trademark infringement case against the website.

BWorld vs. BN is a younger and male-dominated crowd.
