Is this hobby more popular in the UK and other places that are not the US?

Sorry to tell you this Saint..... But it's entirely missleading. There are some glaring deficiencies in the data.
For a start off, as you know, I'm in the UK but my ISP is British Telecom. Their domain is NOT a .co.uk one but a .com domain. So those figures that you are showing as .com include me and a lot of others and are not related to just USA Traffic.
What you actually need is a package that records IP numbers directly and translates those based on a lookup table of the actual location of the server.

I already asked for that, and saint said the data he showed was the best he had... I dont think it really matters, the only thing I think saint would really care about would be GB* traffic (IE to prevent going over the limit)...
*gigabyte, not Great britain

Yeah, I know all .com is not from the US. I would expect a good majority of it is though. Dunno that it really matters :)

True.... But it would be nice to know where your traffic is coming from. It would give a better idea of the interest in building arcade machines and how that is spread per head of population in different countries. Which I think was the original point of the question about the data.

I'm stunned how far Canada is down the list. Given how wired the households are I would have naturally assumed Canada would be #2 or #3 (behind the UK) for page counts and such.
