What's the average number of edits per day on English Wikipedia?

This is to frame my dissertation research -- I haven't found "edits per day" in the stats I've looked at [1][2].

PS: There are other measures of work and importance I've collected.

From the (highly recommended!) "edit sessions" paper, I get ~14,000 hours per day [3].

Alexa & Pew provide good popularity measures [4,5], and there is of course article count (4.2 million!).

Using the ballpark 425,000 hours/month (for 2012, English Wikipedia). Wow!

[4] Alexa: wikipedia.org is the world's 6th most popular website, 58.11% of traffic to English Wikipedia.

[5] Pew: 53% of American Internet users look for info in Wikipedia (as of May 2010). "The percentage of all American adults who use Wikipedia to look for information has increased from 25% in February 2007 to 42% in May 2010. This translates to 53% of adult internet users. "
