If your list is archived by month, you can do a "sort by person" on the
web archives and that will tell you how many posts each of your
subscribers made.  Some of the results may be a bit confusing though.  For
example, LISTSERV seems to tabulate the number of postings per person
based upon the "personal-name" header instead of the address, so some
people may show up more than once on a given archive file.  For example,
LISTSERV will claim that the following are three different people:

Glenn Alperin ([log in to unmask])
G. Alperin ([log in to unmask])
Alperin ([log in to unmask])

Actually, is there any reason why the archives were set up to sort by the
name of the person instead of the e-mail address?
