We miss the Google figures from DK, SE, and NO, and i also think they are quite large - quite possibly somewhere in top 3 or so, i don't think it's impossible for them to be #1 on the site-centric figures. It's true that not all sites participate (it's primarily sites from the country in question and sites that are commercial) it took a few years to get MSN as well as Yahoo included in the official stats and it might take a few years with Google as well i think.

The Jubii.dk thing... well, i personally debated a lot with Jubii representatives over the new rules and i don't want to repeat the debate here. I am very confident that the figures are not uncomparable; although Jubii often have had a loud voice and sometimes have appeared as provocative towards the whole industry, i definitely don't suspect them to be cheating on the figures.

For those that haven't followed the debate, i should add that the primary concern of Jubii was that the MSN-branded Search pages (the browser default search for those that haven't switched to Google yet) is included in the MSN figures - this is probably an important ingredient in the size of MSN.dk, but it does not influence the size of Jubii.dk.
