i still haven't done my homework, and checked the actual data, but:I believe that you are not concerned about trends here at all ("there has been a steep decline of people searching in vain for 'shel' in the past 3 years"), but about current stats.
otoh, *I* am really interested in trend data for now ("how fast do people adopt to new versions of Pd?" "do I need to provide Pd64 packages?")
I do not really see how the search frequency can be turned into trends (yes, google can do that; but that doesn't scale down).
I think even the list of 6000 terms ranked by frequency would be interesting (even if you filtered out actual package names).
that's of course the other thing: I would like the statistics to be collected automatically. i *do not* want to manually filter out package names. (apart from that: how do we determine what a package name is? "zexy" and "else" obviously are. but what about "gge", "tlse"?).
i might produce a one-off list of search terms and send it to the mailinglist, though. maybe somebody can convince me that they got any "actually useful" insights from that :-)
