If you don't know there's no reliable way to measure something, then what's wrong with asking about it? At least now I can say "There's no reliable way to determine that figure, so I don't know the answer." Sometimes trying to get a question answered on this list is a bit like running through a gauntlet of "Why are you asking that? You should know better!" Now maybe you didn't mean it that way, but IMO that appears more demeaning of the poster than providing help. I'm surprised, because that's not typical of you nor this list.
