How many times have you read or edited the LessWrong.com wiki in the last month?

This would be better asked over the course of a year for me. It might be 4 edits over the past year. I would be unsure what to say for month.

I don't think people would remember how often they visit the wiki over a year.

Unless they are really new, they could guess by multiplying by 12 or the appropriate number. If they are really new, they can also be pretty sure it isn't much over this month. EDIT: Spelling, not strictly endorsing this strategy, someone would have to weigh the pro/con but I wanted to add more information.
