My personal pet peeve: blog.yoursite.com with no link to yoursite.com. Extra bonus points for this one having a name so bad that typing it into a new window while reading the original landed me here instead: http://yotta.com/ As to the service itself, it will be wildly inaccurate for anybody running on Cloudfront or another CDN that allows using CNAMES so that img.yoursite.com is served from the CDN. I'm curious to hear their plans for dealing with that. |

regarding the CDN. Totally agree, you can't just assume it's a CDN based on CNAME. we're working on some smarter ways of identifying the CDN you're using based on a few things. we walk the dns resolution tree. so we'll see, for example, that img.yoursite.com is cname'd to xxxxxx.cloudfront.net. we're building a database of known cdn's so we can easily identify what CDN you're on. we also want to let site owners tag their own domains to self-declare which things are cdn's and which are self-hosted. all of these will help to give us better data.
oh and we love feedback, so please tell us if you've got better ways!
