This is interesting data. My first reaction is that knowing unique users or
sessions would be very helpful. It would be fantastic to filter out TPG.
I'm not sure if a simple binary logged-in vs. anonymous would help or not.
If we're getting hundreds or thousands of anonymous hits, that could
indicate interest and value outside the foundation.

Which Orwell was that? Canada? UK? US?

I do agree that it's not clear what to do with the data, aside from
pondering it with a scholarly look on one's face.
