Hi Marius,

I forgot to mention that the density data generated by importing a track 
into Genome Graphs are available in the Table Browser 
(http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables) via the "group: Custom Tracks" 
menu.  You can download the data by selecting "region: genome" and 
entering a name for the file in the "output file" box.
