From 1 to 20 then down to about 3 on average now. I've had my project (https://writeapp.me) on HN a few times but it really went nowhere. Recently however its been featured on MakeUseOf at least twice, Web Appstorm, and a number of other tech/teacher blogs.

Before the MakeUseOf article I'd get 3 to 10 hits a day with 1 visitor at a time. After the first MakeUseOf article it went to about 20 at a time for about a day. After that the site has been picked up by other blogs (some of them review it multiple times on different days) so the traffic has increased about 100% from pre-review levels and has been holding steady at about 100-ish visitors a day and 3 users at a time normally. Note that there are obviously periods in the day where its 0 because you can't have 100 uniques and 3 visitors on site at the same time all day. The math doesn't add up. I'm just talking about what I see whenever I check my analytics which is pretty often during the weekdays.
