Why not collect statistics?
Not perfect but a start would be get people (preferably with a larger demographic than less wrong) to list their day to day activities and estimate how much other people know about those activities.
I think you'll get a large range on the amount of signaling, from the twittering youth the the staunchly off line middle aged.
That would be good data to have, but sometimes things that people rarely know about can greatly influence their opinions of us when they do know. In which case it makes sense that we would take that rare but strong influence into account in choosing our actions.
