Bum Rush the Charts statistics update - 9 AM ET
Here are the final statistics, web-based, from yesterday. From Feedburner’s metrics of the Bum Rush web site:

Here are the final Urchin-based statistics of the Buy Now page:

That number up top is 13,877.
Overall, not bad. As mentioned earlier, we should have some initial numbers from IODA soon; final purchase data (including people who bought directly from iTunes without using the affiliate link) could take some time.
Also, if you’re a researcher interested in crunching the data yourself, here’s a ZIP file of the clickthrough tracker statistics. It’s 817 KB, so make sure that you have some time to spare. The columns in it are IP address, referring URL, and timestamp. From this, you are more than welcome to do your own data analysis. Unlike the Urchin stats above, this data file is raw, raw data - including duplicates, spiders, etc. Also, there’s a slight data skew in that the timestamps are Eastern Time, which means that any purchases after midnight ET (9 PM PT) won’t be in there, but it’s a good first start for data analysis.
