How many people are surfing through, say, General Questions at an average time on an average day? I know there are peak hours and such, I’m just looking for an idea. Always wondered large a population it takes to have a question replied to by an expert so damn fast. And what board get’s the most hits?

This is the best I can do for ya. I see 205 members and 135 guests on the boards at this time. I have no way of determing how many of those are in any given forum, however.
