Yes, sure. To be precise: I am very well aware about that fact, for
example are there several of the amessage-domains in my list. There
are several other reasons for a bias in my stats, like for example the
fact that I compiled the list of the servers to query just using one
single jabberd. 

This is for sure no academic research whatsoever, it is more a bit of 
"Hacking perl scripts in the morning while waiting for the coffee
maker to finish" research -- no doubt about that. 

However, I considered the results interesting, at least to give some
hints about the distribution of the jabberds. 

If you have any suggestions about improving such stats, I would love
to hear them.

Florian.
