So they are! I
didn't realize we had a table of those. That'll be fun to
process :) But it won't serve Jake's use-case.
So, how about it Jake? It seems that you have a lot of takers to dig into
this answering this question with you.

I don't think they are stored in a table anywhere.
The links themselves are, but it isn't tied to editor information, so I
don't think will answer this particular query. In the database dumps at
dumps.wikimedia.org, the table that's dumped as
xxwiki-yyyymmdd-externallinks.sql.gz lists external links per-page. So
if you just wanted counts of link additions (or removals), you could
grab two dumps from different dates and compare. But you'll need to
parse the full revision information to get a count of who added which
links.
