Hi Albrecht

I suspect it's not detailed enough for your needs, but perhaps better than nothing: the Data Never Sleeps infographics from domo.com give some information on this https://www.domo.com/data-never-sleeps

hope this helps

I wonder if the same happens to you. Finding anything relating to corpora research on the Internet is virtually impossible to me.

If you try to find an estimate of the data (mime) types being transferred over the Internet (text: html, pdf; video: mp4 ...) all you get is ads of companies trying to get your money, sell you "solutions" ...

I think those kinds of statistics at least, approximate figures, should be somewhere. If not the data transfers per se, the links on pages.

Do you have an idea about where to find such data?

No, it wasn't they were selling you "infographics". You get some sense of it, but when you see people showing you pictures about such matters and asking you to "sign up" to read data that should be public to begin with you wonder about them.

I would be inclined here to contact the relevant academic network in your country - like JANET I the UK or AARNet in Australia. It's likely they have some of this data, as they need to report it to their member institutions for billing purposes.

"contact the relevant academic network in your country"? For what? For them to turn you into a "user"? ;-)

All I need is that data for a paper. I think I had read about such data before. Something else you could do to have a sense of it is get the most accessed sites and see the links they make public ...

Let's see what the IA folks say:
