We're not currently logging which host clients are requesting, but the
name is showing up in the referrer field. Thus, these numbers aren't
terribly accurate, but should give some idea:
# grep hg-scm.org access.log | wc
1209 25363 296269
# grep hg-scm.net access.log | wc
12 252 2811
# grep hg-scm.com access.log | wc
209 4401 48505
# grep mercurial-scm.org access.log | wc
1262 33932 354769
# wc access.log
101909 2153198 27712003 access.log
I'd say we can safely drop the .net and .com domains.

I can add that to my very long list of sysadmin chores.
