Surely this can't be accurate though as most other
sites on the internet
report virtually non-existent usage of IE7 (less than 1%
everywhere I've
checked). Can someone >double-check this?
This is likely bot traffic with IE7 user-agent. See:

We will hopefully be able to tackle distortion of stats by non-labelled bot
traffic in the next year:

If that's true, IE7 (which came out 10 years ago) is more popular than all
versions of Safari combined. It also means that we need to roll back a
whole slew of features in MediaWiki that aren't supported in IE7.
