Every month since February 2010, the posts in sage-devel were down on the same month in 2009. January was the only month in 2010 to have more posts than the same month in 2009. So its no big surprise Jan 2011 is down on Jan 2010, as a particularly high number of posts were made in Jan 2010. See http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/about?hl=en I think the proliferation of lists might be a small factor, but I don't think it is the main one. Since the problem existed before http://ask.sagemath.org existed, that is certainly not the reason.
