    FFA.net doesn't have that level of stats, but my HP email update list is a smidge over 3,500.

    According to the email list stats, jeconais, bobmin, kinsfire, abraxan, crys, myself, ruskbyte and ishtar all have over 3 thousand. (jeconais has over 5.5K)

    The only reason you Guy's have less is because FFA.net isn't as well known.

    BTW, why is it I only recieve Update alerts for half the authors on there?

    Uh, he meant that he doesn't know how many hits and such that he has. The reason that he doesn't have that level of stats is because Jeconais (or whoever designed the site) didn't feel like adding it.

    A bit, skewed.
    Code:
    title words    chap reviews  hits	c2s	favs	alerts
    HIM  9435	 3	4	4440	0	   1	    2
    
    Sad, really sad.
    Ah, well. HIM was a fruitless experiment.

    Highest Reviews/Words ratio has to Ruskbyte's Unfinished *Symphony*. Some 600 Reviews for what?- A 1k-2k chapter!

    Naw, not Ruskbyte's. Might be a better one out there, but I know Rage Point's No Shipper's Anthem is up to 610 reviews for 430 words.

    Then again, it's more a song than a story, but still couple hundred more reviews than words is impressive.

    No longer a pile of snow because the pile melted.
    I just read it and it's well done. I lol'd. I think it reflects how a lot of people on ff.net are getting annoyed with ships. In one of my storie's A/N I mentionned that I wouldn't bother pairing Harry with anyone and got a good 15 reviews telling me how that was a great idea.

    Anyway, so that I'm not completely off topic, here are the stats for my three stories.

    Walking Across Time

    Word: 16528
    Chapters:9
    Reviews: 86
    Hits:15858
    C2s:32
    Faves:31
    Alerts:89

    I guess time-travel is still sort of popular. Harry actually does kill Tom Riddle in this one.

    Feel my Fangs

    Words:23364
    Chapters:13
    Reviews:84
    Hits:37282
    C2s:54
    Faves:64
    Alerts:168

    This one is actually in the DLP trash bin but I think that because of the fact there was even a link here, I managed to gather some more hits.

    Harry Gaunt

    Words:8727
    Chapters:2
    Reviews: 29
    Hits:2587
    C2s:16
    Faves:19
    Alerts:59

    The best review/hits ratio I've got. Maybe it's because my summary sucks but the story isn't so bad? Meh.

    Snufkin, shorter stories (in terms of chapters) typically have better review count per hit. Part of it is because the more experienced/jaded fanfiction readers will just move and either add to author/story alert list, or move on, while the younger readers are more likely to leave a review, or read a shorter story.

    Story Stats on FFN

    I'm not too great with numbers, but I'll try. (They tend to flip around when I read them, almost like number dyslexia, so feel free to double check.)

    An Aunt's Love: 55 chapters, 268649 words, 7634 reviews, 1308652 hits, 475 c2s, 2857 favs, 2524 alerts.

    What is Right: 13 chapters, 58401 words, 1356 reviews, 293670 hits, 328 c2s, 863 favs, 1271 alerts.

    Ack. Stupid numbers. :wall: Now I have a headache.

    I hope that was what you meant. I'm off to peruse the rest of the forums.

    Very nice! We have our undisputed queen and reigning stats champion here:
    7,634 reviews. That's the most I've ever seen for any single fanfic in one location. Ror-blot's Make A Wish had the title for a little while but it's around 6,800 or so. S'Tarkan's a contender for the crown if he keeps it up though.

    And we'll just have to wonder about how many Aspen in the Sunlight's "A Year Like No Other" or Sarinileni's "Lust or Love" could have gotten. (Both I believe were over 5,000 reviews and WIPs when ff.net admins zapped the fics.)

    I bow to the champ. Even if the fics aren't exactly DLP-style, you gotta respect the girth (especially here in the sizequeens' thread).

    S'Tarkan is an amazing writer. I feel he will pass me in time, especially since "An Aunt's Love" is almost done. Thank goodness.

    When you're buds with Kinsfire, that's not surprising.
