Google's massive survey of text/html documents on the web:

Blogged, as well: http://microformats.org/blog/2006/01/25/google- releases-web-authoring-statistics/

Of specific relevance to this list:

http://code.google.com/webstats/2005-12/classes.html

class="title" is the third most commonly used class, and
class="content" the 6th most, which could be significant in terms of
some of the recent hatom/hcard/hreview disambiguation discussions.

It looks like only a tiny % of hyperlinks use the rel attribute, but
of those that do, that data is also interesting.

rel="nofollow" is *far* more common than anything else, but
rel="license" is surprisingly widespread too. rel="tag" is catching up
to rel="bookmark", though their commentary on this is a little
disparaging.

I assume you're refering to: "Web 2.0 collaborative remixability social tagging" ? Yeah, a bit snarky, but I've seen worse. :-D

Though I do find their phrase "rampant bad UI" quite amusing, and
unfortunately all too true.
