I’ve released a first version of my diggstats project. Diggstats reports on the health of digg.com using the digg API, and some interesting logic I wrote which makes an educated guess at which stories are buried, thus allowing me to report the number of buried stories within a given time period.

The graph shown above is live data, but there’s much more to look at within the diggstats pages.


I’ve got other neat plans for what to do with the data I collect to generate these stats (trust me, the underlying framework is doing a lot more than the two fourteen current graphs would have you believe), but those pages aren’t ready just yet.

The graphs in diggstats are generated with XML/SWF Charts, a really slick graphing tool which can be used with nearly anything that can generate custom xml.
