maybe, although I did not want to start a competition among different
servers. It's just that such data on traffic etc is not easily
available, and even less available is data on the number of requests
for a single item.

So, the page does have some interesting numbers.

E.g. one thing i would be curious, and never found out, is how many
downloads there are of a new FreeBSD release when it comes out, say in
6hrs periods for the first few days.

And, how much bandwidth and CPU could be saved if FreeBSD was
distributed using multicast e.g. with an application like RMDP...
