Wikistats are now available for all Wikimedia projects.
Stats have been generated from the latest dumps, which are from March 9.

If there were a machine dedicated to stats of various kinds, with its own mirror of the db, could this be done more efficiently as a running-total, updated whenever the db was updated?
A dedicated mirrored server for these and other background jobs (e.g. IBM history flow charts and Special Pages) would certainly help. Switching away from processing dumps towards direct SQL access has been suggested before. Especially with the upcoming database scheme change, dumps become more difficult to handle, though not impossible.
I had my doubts about switching, because very heavy 'Special:' SQL queries have been often disabled or cancelled halfway to bring down server load, and the stats queries will be very heavy indeed.
A separate server would make this less of an issue. Average CPU speed will do fine, memory no less than 1Gb, preferably 2GB. Even though I took great care to keep memory requirements at an acceptable level, some hash tables need to be in memory and their sizes grow like everything else around here.
I hope you don't mean running-total literally, where all figures change every second :) At least it should be possible to generate new stats once or twice a week, instead of once a month (the latter depending on how often dumps are generated).

Anthere, please do not top-quote (e.g. put your answer on top and the previous "question" or text at the bottom) and mot importantly, do not full-quote the entire post!
These two things make it much harder to read your answers:)
Best wishes,
Tels

Aaarg, I'd wanted that to go to Anthere alone, and not the list. Sorry. Please excuse my fumbling fingers and my feeble mind :)

You are certainly true I should reduce the amount of quoting ... I will try to remember it.
However, not all writers agree that top writing is wrong. I personally find much easier and much quicker to read top-answers than bottom answers. It depends on the context. In fact, generally, "answers" to a question are clearer below the questions. "Comment" about a mail are more quickly read at the top. Imho.
