December Stats

Sorry about the delay…

Here is the statistics for December.

• Alexa = Alexa ranking
• NZ ranking = Alexa NZ ranking (100000 if none)
• Technorati.com authority score (1 if none)
• HD Score calculated Alexa*AlexaNZ/Authority/10000.

All data was downloaded this evening.

I should add, and I think I’ve said this before but it bears repeating, that the experience of compiling this list really does make me appreciate the cat herding job that Tim does over at Tumeke – I can’t imagine the trouble he goes to.

Note: Blog list, and original concept from Tumeke, who have a more considered ranking of the NZ blogosphere here. No Hamsters were harmed in the compiling of these statistics, just egos!
