EDIT
Data is now available directly on http://p1999pop.dmsimard.com

I was curious to see what kind of population statistics I could pull from the client side, so I went away and made a server population parser script.
Obviously, this could have been done far easier from the server side but I don't happen to have that sort of access :P

At the time I've ran my "snapshot" for data, there were 699 players online and my parser was able to find and identify 440 characters. (Friday January 18th at 4:45PM EST)
This means that 259 characters were either /Anonymous or on /Roleplay.

Please excuse me, I'm bad with graphs and charts, but here's some data.
If someone wants to use the raw parsed data to make some awesome charts, let me know and I'll give it to you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wow. You need a real life, and quick.
