Ask HN: Any one have any stats on how many HN 'users' are bots?

[eragnew]

From a real user (but I guess you'll have to take my word on that :)

[mindcrime]

I am the only real user here. The rest of what you see are all bots I control, or figments of my imagination.

Even pg is a bot, see: https://github.com/mindcrime/pgbot

[SubZero]

See? I even control this bot.

[mindcrime]

I knew you were going to say that.

[Killswitch]

I have been unplugged from the Matrix. You do not control me!

[hef19898]

A rebel! Get him!

[Killswitch]

You can't catch me, I bend pixels!

I can think of a couple bots I knew of but can't tell you the names. And that is hardly a stat.
