SE demographic data is a very interesting topic. From what I've felt;

- Alta, more serious knowledgable users.
- Ask Jeeves, second teir newbies; "where do I find a search engine?"
- Yahoo, a general cross section of users with a higher percentage of kids and women. A touch less tech savvy.
- Lyco's. Higher percentage of college age kids. (mp3, pictures, pop culture).
- Google. Who knows. You get only a third of the available refering data becausing thier content piracy.
- Hotbot, a good cross section of users. Some new, some tech, some old, some young.
- Infoseek. Greater percentage of women. I thought we'd see more kids with the Disney alliance, but that has made no difference.

As for referrals:

Alta 18%
combined meta engines 15%
ink.yahoo 12%
ink.aol 11%
hotbot 6%
lycos 6%
msn 5%
web crawler 6%
excite 2%
fast/all the web 2%
google 2%
infoseek 2%
nl .005%
rest...other engines and recip links.
