Greetings and welcome, Nick!

You might find that going through our archive, which is at
http://www.nyu.edu/acf/staff/oconnort/JDS/ and is current through
October (I've been a slight bit sick and haven't gotten around to
putting up November yet) is a good way to get background information on
the last couple of years' traffic.  You can do a search there and find
lots of buried nuggets....

And of course people here may reply to your query, but it's something
we've talked about endlessly.  I daresay that there's more text, by word
count, in the archive, about that story, than there are words in the
story!
