Clarification of Question by webguy700-ga on 09 Jan 2003 19:47 PST

I'm not looking for anything top secret here. I believe this
information is published somewhere on the Internet.
I've already found the numbers for AltaVista:
In December, 30.1 million unique users performed 505m queries on AV.

I'm looking for the same kind of stats for the other search engines.
Thank you,

Hi -

Will most of these suffice, or do you need every one of these?  A few
of these I have not been able to find data for.

Something like this?

Or per month?

Yes, definately like that. If possible I'd like more up-to-date stats,
and for as many search engines as you can provide. The more info the
better.

That URL has information saying AV gets 50m searches per day.
According to AV Director of Strategic Communications, the accurate
number is 16m per day. Accuracy is important for my purposes. I will
tip accordingly. Thanks!

Well, I'm under the impression that statistics on the web are going to
vary, and that the only true numbers are from the horses' mouths.  So
I'll start making some direct contact with the actual engines.

Well, I've only had a couple emails back from these companies, so it's
not looking good that way.  I'm trying phone now...

Overture receives more than 175 million search queries per day with an
average search serving speed of less than 50 milliseconds.

There are no published statistics for alltheweb.com.  

This is it thus far... waiting on some callbacks, but no guarantees.
