Spam stats redux

My spam stats page was broken for a while, but I’ve fixed it. Looks like I’m rejecting about 10,000 spam attempts per day, which is significantly less than I expected given the rate of growth when I last checked the numbers a few months ago. It’s possible some of this reduction is due to the fact that I’m no longer collecting spam via spamtrap addresses, with some of those addresses (which accounted for about a third of my total spam volume) falling off the lists of spammers who actually check for deliverability.

(I’m also still interested in the idea of aggregating spam stats from multiple sites, though I haven’t heard of anything new since the last time I posted about that.)
