Top newsreaders by posting quantity - 08/27/2008
As file sizes posted to Usenet have increased, so have the instances of files being broken up into multiple parts since files are too large to post as a single part. The post quantities below reflect the number of files posted to Usenet which is a more accurate reflection of activity than number of parts.
The values indicated in the following report are taken from a sample population and are not reflective of total Usenet traffic. This population is sampled 240 times a day.
