I think people might feel inhibited if you don't create the inital page 
for them... sort of like going into someone elses turf without a clear 
invitiation. (Yes, I know you actually did write a "go-ahead").

At first I thought "only 700", but then I noticed it was only the home 
page. Out of curiosity though... do you think Google Analytics is able to 
reliably recognize humans from bots etc?

As a side note, I often go to pmwiki.org when looking for documentation, 
so some of these visits might be people lik me. So out of further 
curiosity, do you have any statistics for a page that's likely to be 
visited by someone interested in learning more about pmwiki? (I looked at 
the home page and couldn't find a single obvious link of where to go for 
learning more about pmwiki - maybe you should have such a page?)

ok, I'll stop rambling now :-)
