Remember, there are over 85 thousand reddits; those billion pageviews don't all come from just the top reddits.

As a related topic, I wonder what percentage of reddit's pageviews come from the top subreddits. For some reason I seem to remember seeing this number mentioned before, but I can't remember where.

I'm sure top 6 or so are orders of magnitude larger. I'm sort of glad they keep the stats to the public tightly controlled - we can see the subscribers - but otherwise only a periodic update is good. I'd worry about gaming (as if it weren't a problem already) on that info.

Here's a couple I mod: /r/Music (21st largest) and /r/Trees (25th largest).

As you can see, /r/Trees has an order of magnitude more traffic.

Probably because /r/music doesn't have a tenth of the community /r/trees does.
