in thread More PM stats analysis on new levels

The data set I'd love to get is the number of nodes and sum of node reputations for initial posts and replies in each category of Perlmonks. If I had that by user, plus user XP and maybe even date user joined, that would be a fantastic data set.

The reason that "by user" helps is that it easily allows clearing out outliers like the nodereaper and zombies. For anonymity, the data set doesn't even need to have user name/home-node id -- though that doesn't really protect the anonymity of the Saints in our book. If by user (even masked) isn't sufficiently anonymous, then those same stats summarized by monk level would be sufficient, as long as vroom/antivroom/nodereaper/zombie accounts were stripped out first.

Does that address the anonymity concern?

The only bit I dont get is what you mean by category. Do you mean nodetype?

[xdg]

Yes. I was curious about whether more reputation accumulates in SOPW replies versus Meditations original posts and things of that sort for the various different levels.

[demerphq]

Ok, I'll see what I can do.

gods: please tell me by /msg if you think the data that xdg wants is not appropriate for public access. It seems ok to me aggregated out.
