Hmm... 'Netscape 5.x - 11886'. It's hard to believe a browser that was only
released in very buggy source code form would have even that many hits with
any demographic.

Anyway, permit me to advertise my own highly skewed statistics:

They're probably totally unrepresentative of the global situation (not
least because over 10% of my visits seem to come from the UK), but at least
they make nice reading for Firefox users. Plus they inlcude some of the
more obscure browsers usually omitted from these surveys (IBrowse, AWeb,
Voyager, various mobile devices, and so on).
