From OneStat for the past 2 months.

1. Google 55.2%
2. Yahoo 21.7%
3. MSN Search 9.6%
4. AOL Search 3.8%
5. Terra Lycos 2.6%
6. Altavista 2.2%
7. Askjeeves 1.5%

So if you add yahoo and aol who use google's system you get a whopping

80.7% of searches!

OneStats numbers just don't match up to "our" real world experience..

We have good rankings in both MSN and Google across 400+ domains, that we monitor for our clients.

Our MSN rankings of course take a back seat to LookSmart listings, and MSN featured sites.

And there is no way that Google+Yahoo+AOL traffic outpaces MSN, at the ratio that OneStat reports...

Our experience is showing Google and MSN traffic to be fairly even.

Yahoo paces at about 20% of the traffic Google generates, and AOL limps along at less than 8% of our Google clicks.

OneStat's stats would have one believe that Yahoo generates almost 50% of the traffic that Google generates?

Of Course # of searches is a different metric than # of click throughs. But, I would say they must have some relation in number?
