Hi Alex,
To quickly answer your first question, stats.grok.se is quasi-independent - it's run privately but uses the traffic data generated by WMF. If you want to process this yourself, it's available in hourly increments covering all pages on all Wikimedia sites, including all language editions of Wikipedia, with a day totalling about 2.5gb of compressed data. There are two formats:
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/ - the "traditional" log files as used by stats.grok.se
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-all-sites/ - includes separated data for the mobile & Wikipedia Zero sites as well as the standard site. Probably substantially more useful for your purposes.
For your second question, not really, for privacy reasons. Some top-level data on overall traffic by country is available - see the rather fun https://ironholds.shinyapps.io/WhereInTheWorldIsWikipedia/ - but not on a per-page level.
Andrew.

Hi Wikipedia analysts,
I work in product development for the Insights team at Way To Blue. We provide reports to major film studios to provide them with information about how their films are doing on social platforms over the course of their marketing campaign, up to a film’s release in cinemas.
We typically focus on social media volumes (and traditionally split by Twitter, Forums, Blogs and News), however I just stumbled across the free Wikipedia article traffic statistics site (http://stats.grok.se/ ) and am thinking that daily Wikipedia traffic could be an interesting additional metric for us to report. I have a few questions about daily Wikipedia traffic data:
Are you affiliated with the site above, or do you independently
cover traffic volume?
Do you know if it is possible to attribute a source country to
traffic count? E.g. I can see that the daily traffic on the Tomorrowland (film) page was 5773 yesterday, however it would be interesting what proportion of that is US vs. UK vs. etc.
We have never used Wikipedia traffic as a source, so if you are the wrong team to be asking about this please let me know!
Best regards
Alex
