His some stats as of 20090211

Total Ways: 56064
Total Nodes: 588281
Total Relations: 40
Highway length sums (metres):  33456642m (roughly 16% of roads
according to CIA Factbook)
Total number of contributors: 150
total nodes belonging to the top 30 contributors: 580227 (99%)
total ways belonging to the top 30 contributors: 55307 (99%)

What does this tell me?

1.  Contributors are increasing (+20% as of 20090114)
2.  Data contributed are also increasing (+5% as of 20090114)
3.  99% of all data are contributed by the top 30 active mappers.

While we are increasingly becoming popular the number of active
mappers are just a third of all contributors?
How do you interpret the stats?
