I really doubt that usgs.gov (#978) gets anywhere near the number of visits that nfl.com gets (#993).
Everytime there's an earthquake in California, half the state goes there.

#52I extracted the data, added IP, country and response headers, and dumped it into a usable format: http://openmymind.net/top1000data.txt You can do some decently interesting analysis..like the fact that nginx is the front-end for nearly as many sites as IIS.
Thanks for the data.
"nginx is the front-end for nearly as many sites as IIS", oh I wished that was true but according to my naive counting IIS is over 3 times more popular, am I missing something?:
$ wget http://openmymind.net/top1000data.txt
$ grep -c '"Server": "nginx"' top1000data.txt
39
$ grep -c '"Server": "Microsoft-IIS' top1000data.txt

#53Mashable - #696 Techcrunch - #850. Nice to see I'm not the only one that prefers Cashmore to Arrington.
Why? All Mashable does is post about Twitter trends and recycle Techcrunch posts a week later.
