Would anyone have/know where to find any of the following estimates for

http://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaEN.htm#namespaces gives you the number of pages in User: namespace.
Thanks, I thought i new this page, but I guess I didn't new it well enough.
Incidentally, here's a chilling number: the average number of new editors per month in 2011 was 7,700, in 2012 it is forming up to be about 6,500. I don't like this trend at all; I thought the number of new editors was supposed to have stabilized at some point, what I am seeing there suggest a steady decline that continues up to this day. I didn't bother modelling it yet, but if this keeps up, in few years Wikipedia will be a virtual desert.
