Difficult and finicky to do, though, and doesn't deal with things like
expatriates...

may be worth glancing at, incidentally; it's educational how many
edits to some projects come from outside the "obvious" national area.
It doesn't translate perfectly into readership, of course, but there
are some surprising implications there - half of all edits to rowiki
seem to come from outside Romania, for example.
