Do we have any detailed statistics available for the number of postings per person? I am seeing many many postings from complete newbies (i.e. < 5 postings), very few from moderate newbies (5 < postings < 50) and then many postings from relative long-termers. I'd be interested to see a graph of number-of-postings (split into bands, probably) against number-of-users. Purely for interest's sake. I guess the graph would be approximately bathtub. I'd be interested to analyse it to see whether there would be a similar underlying mathematical (if not real-world) reason for it to be so ...

bear with me, I'm suffering the light-headed silliness borne of absolute and utter exhaustion ...

I'm also interested! I'm trying to collect some stats (not the ones you want unfortunately) from time to time, in my profile.

Here's a shot. Kind of time consuming to do this unfortunately.

6,590 users have less than 1 post.
17,326 users have between 1 and 100 posts.
250 users have between 100 and 500 posts
31 users have between 500 and 1000 posts.
13 users have between 1000 and 1500 posts.
22 users have more than 1500 posts.

Shame it's a pain. Would be fascinating to be able to analyse the numbers in detail. But no big deal, it was an idle suggestion.

Interestingly it *does* go up a bit at the very end of the distribution.

This is the info you asked for. You can easily make it into a graph. I don't understand what's missing...

The mesh is somewhat coarser than I was envisaging, but no matter, don't worry about it if it takes an age to do.
