True but going from a 5 yr average of 2500 a day down to 300-500 I suspect rankings dropped off quite a bit. Based upon the TBPR drop, if you want to put any credibility in that, it's quite possible that the number of pages included in the main index dropped dramatically.

There's no "real way" to know if you're not keeping accurate data for all these things for the long term.
