Moderators have a view of the site's statistics, but they cannot share the specifics. So, I'm starting this post to keep track of the evolution of our publicly available statistics over time. Please feel free to update it every now and then.
I use the Area51 page as source for those stats, in addition to the Quantcast figure.
Questions/day is a rolling 2-week mean. Visits/day is a rolling two-week median.
