Statistics on the usage of Project Runeberg's electronic editions of Nordic literature has earlier been presented per title. This time, I set out to count individual web pages instead. Works were accesses are spread among several web pages are disfavored by this approach, but it gives more detailed information of which parts or chapters are more popular than others.
The same principles are used here as earlier: we only count "clicks" (not inline images) from interactive users (not from robots and web spiders). The data cover the first 80 days of 1999.
