The statistics I'm giving here make use of the server logs and Google Analytics to show trends an information of all visitors to the forum.

Note: All statistics are correct as of 1st February, 12:04 GMT. Period reporting is for January, slightly late posting.

Last month the forums have transferred over 17 GIGABYTES of data, despite the downtime we experienced. This means that per visit each user downloads 12 MB of data through an average of 2.6 visits per visitor. This doesn't include over 10 GB of bandwidth from bots etc.

The busiest day this month was the 17th (1 GB) and the quietest was the 21th (3 MB). Interesting the busiest days of the week are Monday and Wednesday with the quietest being Friday. Most visits occur around 1am GMT (7pm Central) with the least at 9am GMT (3am Central).

According to the statistics the busiest country is the USA followed by Canada. We've also had visitors from the UK, Germany, Australia, Finland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Russia, Poland, Ukraine, China, Czech Republic, Latvia, France, Mexico, Israel, Croatia, Romania, Spain, Denmark, Brazil and South Korea.

The top 25 users shows Macid having used the most bandwidth this month followed closely by WingedZephyr with shadowfox at the bottom of the top 25 - a difference of over 900 MB of data.

When it comes to various robots and spiders MSNBot has used over 4 GB of bandwidth in its indexing and Googlebot has used 1.8 GB.

Most visits last between 0 and 30 seconds (probably bots) with the next largest visit being over an hour! The average overall is about 15 minutes.

84% of users use Windows with 35% using 2008 followed by 26% using X.P and then Vista / 7 with 18%. Mac accounts for 10% of visits with all visitors using OS X. Linux is a measly 4% with the majority using Android although Ubuntu, SUSE, Fedora and Debian are shown too. Other operating systems include the PS3, Wii, Blackberry and Symbian. (It's likely Win 2008 it caused by school browsing where traffic is forwarded through the school's servers)

When it comes to browsers Firefox has 50% usage with the latest 3.6(.13) being used, hits come from FF 4 as well as 3.5(.16) and even some from 3.0(.19). IE users mostly use version 8 with some hits from 7 and 6. Netscape has a small amount of users. Google Chrome has 20% of visitors using it. Safari, Opera, Mozilla, Samsung, LG, Motorola, iPhone and Android are also used.

88% of users have the site bookmarked or browse directly whereas 10% come from Search engines. Another 1% are linked from various sites.
