How do you want to use them?

Actually this topic sort of come up recently on talk-au, firstly you can take 
all the data, remove spurious track information and "average" the results to 
come up with better accuracy.

The data could be used in a copyright case to protect OSM.

The information might be used to predict the maxspeed where ways aren't tagged 
properly.

The information could be used by routing algorythms to predict the best routes 
for specific times of day.

The list goes on.
