I was trying to figure out what happened and realized today I had run the migration script to migrate to the new notebook format. It turns out that I've been counting "number of accounts" by "number of worksheet directories". Well, there were nearly 5000 inactive accounts from long ago with no directories. The migration script recreated those directories in the course of copying them over. So this was a false alarm. That said, there are in fact a total of about 14,000 accounts on sagenb.org, but only 9,000 are recent/active (there have indeed been about 5,000 new accounts created over the last month), and the number of new ones each day is still holding at about 100-200.
