August hits..

121 in 1 1/2 days.. that is pretty good.. looks about on average to be 80 a day..time 31 is 2420, but if we say it increments 10 hits more . week..
almost 3000

Here we are at noon on the 16th. Exactly half way through the month. Hits at this point are 1165. Simple extrapolation suggests 2330 as a final total.

That would put Sarge right on the money, with another 4 or 5 users very close to that guess.
