Statistics and places to get statistics on the GMOD Project.

Web Site

Traffic to the GMOD website, gmod.org, has been tracked since November 2007, first through AWStats and then using Google Analytics. No data is available for the period between January 2011 and July 2012.

2012 onwards

Website hits are now being measured using Google Analytics. Please note that Google Analytics uses a different method of collecting results, which is why there is such a difference between the figures from AWStats and those from Analytics.

Mailing Lists

GMOD Mailing Lists are hosted all over the place. Since June of 2010, there is a single Nabble Archive for all GMOD lists, but before that the archives, like the lists, are spread out all over. Therefore, getting a comprehensive picture of email traffic and subscribers is very difficult. For any lists hosted at Sourceforge, email traffic numbers are available on a monthly or even daily basis. For other lists, this can be harder to come by.

Subscriber counts are even more problematic. The number of subscribers over time is not archived by mailing list software, and the number of subscribers currently on a list is often only available to the list admin. Therefore we only have subscriber counts for a limited number of lists, and only for the time points that we actually bothered to record the numbers.

See also Components below.

Numbers are only shown for lists where we have access to this information.

Mailing List Volume

Postings per month is readily available for any mailing list hosted by Sourceforge. And, at some point, we should summarize that information here. Raw data is available as GMOD Mailing List Statistics.

Components

SourceForge Download Statistics

Download statistics are available for projects hosted on the GMOD SourceForge page. See SourceForge Download Statistics for the raw data.

GBrowse

GBrowse 2 Registrations

When users install GBrowse2, they are given the option of reporting their registration, resulting in an email to GMOD project staff. Since the registration was turned on January 27, 2010, through November 4 (9 months), we’ve received 1832 registrations, 656 of which are from unique hosts. This comes to 203 registrations per month total, 72 registrations/mo on unique hosts. The true number of installations is higher, because people can choose not to send in registrations.
