I think that table is actually about the top search terms that Wikipedia receives traffic from. So "Wikipedia" is used in just over 3% of searches which end up in a hit to Wikipedia, and "sex" is used in 0.1% of searches which end up in a hit to Wikipedia.
It's bizarre. I did a search for "sex" (with trepidation - I'm at work) and didn't see any links to Wikipedia. It's also strange that so many companies go to such a lot of work to get in the top few results for "sex", while we apparently get in quite easily, with no effort?

Apparently there is a large market for quality and non-titillating sexual information in article format... Entry into this engorging market need not be stiff.
Digital Universe, you listening? This would be an attractive and excellent niche, especially for people who make a fetish of reliablity they've paid for. Although they would have to beat us off first, so perhaps the first mover advantage makes such a proposition unalluring.
