I'm assuming this is the link:

http://ooo-wiki.apache.org/wiki/Wiki/statistics

Do we have any sense of what % of page visits are comprised by the top
pages?   The above numbers look impressive, but I have no idea if the
top 10 pages account for 20% of the hits, or 1%.

I can crunch the numbers if there is some way to derive them.  I could
even crunch the http logs directly, if they are saved for a couple of
days.

In any case, the top pages you've reported are not typical "community"
pages.  They would work well as markdown pages.  Except maybe the
FAQ's we want to be more dynamic and wiki-enabled.  Might even be
something the Forum volunteers would be interested in maintaining
directly, since they would have the best sense of what questions are
"frequent".

I think this is encouraging.
