[Toolserver-l] Monthly pageviews

[Kolossos]

A text file would be a good step to put the data in a database.
I did this in past with my public database u_kolossos_wp_logs_p  as 
there was http://wikistics.falsikon.de/dumps.htm with such text files,
but the last update was 2009.

Greetings Kolossos
