incrementing the number 8 and collecting the data from each user's info page.

Sure, one could do this 2-thousand times I suppose, and collect all the stats for each, but surely no one did that?

And thanks for confirming it's not me failing with Katie's technique. God-like powers can be dangerous if not aware of having them. I learned this as sysop on a RSTS/E system at my college in the 70s. Ugly...

If I were to do it, I'd use wget and crawl through those URLs in a more automated way. Then, a few scripts to parse through the html should make short work of extracting useful data.
