Asa, would you mind putting up a graph of the daily/cumulative downloads like you did for the PR? I'm sure a lot of people would love to see it.

Then if we could get that updated automatically along with the sfx download counter, that would totally rock!

Scott, there's nothing automatic about any of that :-) I update the SFX counter several times a day by hand (doing the math on the download numbers, creating the graphic and uploading it).

I'm sure there's a million and one people here that could make you a script to automatically do it maybe once an hour or something. Hell, I'd do it myself if I wasn't so lazy...

I didn't want to disappoint you but I'm responsible for at least three of those six million downloads. I had nothing to do so I figured "why not download Firefox three million times?"

David, but someone who download it only once may reused the installer on many machines. While the download count is certainly not the number of Firefox installed/in used, the 2 numbers should be more or less the same.
