Yeah:

"total of 3,050,203 entries, 3,270,000,000 words."

If the translation service I just used is giving me an accurate feel,
it seems a bit more facile than the wikipedia right now, and even less
well referenced and less accurate. But it's got more articles, and
it's still pretty new.

The Alexa traffic rank is a 'healthy' 281,588 though ;-) but I don't
know how accurate Alexa would be for a chinese site though, it's
possible Alexa isn't used much in China which would skew the
statistics.

We live in an imperfectly imperfect world. Life in a perfectly
imperfect world would be *much* better. Life in an imperfectly perfect
world would be pretty ghastly though.
