I was asked by tapir about a new stats for AotW. Here it is in a slightly different format than the last statistic: for all pages linked in the AotW box on the FrontPage I have counted the hits that resulted from directly following the links from the FrontPage. I've marked the main articles with double asterisks.

   223 SenseisLibrary
** 178 SakataEio
** 152 WorldAmateurGoChampionship
**  90 WorldYouthGoeChampionship
    88 Myoshu
    84 SLTheOriginalPages
    50 SLHistory
    32 Goe
    29 ProfessionalTournaments
    25 ChoChikun
    23 IngsRules
    22 ModernJosekiAndFuseki
    22 DaveSigaty/20000thPage
    21 TesujiAndAntiSujiOfGo
    20 KillerOfGo
    20 IncheonWorldAmateurBadukChampionship

Note: The count was obtained using the page referrer information sent by browsers. As not all browser/firewall configurations let this information through, the actual count certainly is higher. The count for SenseisLibrary may be off, as there are other links on the FrontPage that link to that page as well.

I've cross checked with hitcounts to the pages and I think it is a good estimate to say that AotW generated at least 2000 additional page views in October for all pages linked (not only main article pages.) Not bad. All in all I think that AotW is a very good tool to highlight SL content.
