Re: Rough estimate of number of downloads per year/month/day?

We are fairly restrictive about giving access to that data. You'd have
to check that with -core.

Through a quick discussion with Jonathan yesterday it seems the data
in there isn't actually that correct anyway - it looks like we're
hitting the limit of what the free tier of google analytics will give
us, and have been hitting that for quite some time, so we don't really
know what the numbers are...

But it might be a good idea to have somebody who actually knows how GA
works very well take a look at things and see if we can work something
out from it.
