I had no idea. Thanks for letting me know.... I just figured people would be interested in the statistics. Regardless of whether or not they were posted in the proper forum.

Thanks for that. I found it interesting to use on the various photo sites I visit.
I had always thought the FM site had a lot of Brits while dpreview was more US dominated. Surprised to see FM at 46% US while dpreview is only 27% US. Looking at the country percentages of various other sites is very interesting.
Knowing total traffic of various photo sites is also interesting.

The source of that "statistic" is sharenator.com, which seems to be basically a self-reporting traffic analyzer. That means that it does not analyze traffic from server or packet statistics. Much like alexa it would seem to gather visits from a narrow demographic (those who sign up for sharenator/alexa kind of websites) and extrapolates to the entire demographic using the web. That's dubious at best; it's not real and is therefore basically useless.
But people will draw conclusions from it and speculate endlessly based on it, believing in it implicitly. Then they will elsewhere make very sarcastic remarks about "statistics".
