Last year when it showed decline all us fanbois were telling how it dindt work, while the haters were using it to prove decline though. X-fire for AoC (sundays):

19. jul 09:11227 (middle of winback) correction 9430
09. aug 09: 9225 (winback over.) correction 6426
dunno where you got those numbers but the ones for july 9th and 09August that you quoted are way off according to the numbers I get on the XFire site
Anyway was there a patch or something yesterday because it was down to #49
The xfire numbers suddunly changed dramatically, I've no idea what that means, they have corrected the graph and taken a few thousand off each day for the last few weeks. Is it bugged now? or was it bugged before? something dodgy has happened to the numbers.
That is correct Noggy, the xfire figures suddenly changed for all the games I am following. WAR, WOW and AoC. There is a thread on xfire about it, but no answer from their staff as far as I can seen
This actually makes it even harder to use xfire as a tool for measurement since you cannot know whether the figures will change suddenly, by accident, or any other reason..
Alexa.com ftw

Nah the thing that sucks about the graph is it is calculated by hours, the daily number is calculated by minutes. However, the IMPORTANT number is really X fire users per day for that you need to just check the site. Another imprtant thing on Xfire is the ranking which does calculate the hours and AoC is usually pretty steady in the 40s when they are not giving away free time.
AoC.com doesn't require a subscription to goto but that site is way way down on traffic as well.
