For almost every Wikimedia wiki there is a summary report, to help you quickly assess
fundamentals, without getting avalanched by too many details from unwieldy tables.
There are sets of summaries, also known as report cards, per project:
Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikibooks, Wikinews, Wikiquote, Wikiversity, Wikisource and Other Projects.
For Wikipedia there are also sets of summaries per region:
Africa, America’s, Asia, Europe, India, Oceania, and also for Artificial Languages.
Finally for every wiki there is also a new ‘Summary’ link in the project sitemaps:

Dumps
All 750+ Wikimedia wikis are exported on a regular basis to so called dump files.
The Wikicounts scripts process these dumps and generate a lot of intermediate csv files.
The Wikireports scripts read from these csv files and generate reports in many languages.
The csv files are also available for download, see below.
Rudimentary documentation: Intro + How to run WikiStats on your own Mediawiki site
Log files
All requests to Wikimedia servers are logged.
Mid 2009: 4,000 article requests per second, 70,000 file requests per second all in all.
From these logs page view counts are distilled.

My first edit on the English Wikipedia (October 2002) was on statistics, namely the importance
of Florence Nightingale
for the development of epidemiological statistics, and particularly her
usage of the polar diagram.

The links below are examples only, and lead you to the German Wikipedia.
Tip 1: Choose site map above for full list of all languages
Tip 2: Switch between tables and charts, between languages or comparison reports with navigation bar, see below
Tables for each language project plus summary for all projects:
Language projects are sorted by popularity (views per hour)
Charts for each language project plus summary for all projects:
Tables plus Charts for comparisons between language projects:
See section Special Reports for other tables and charts listed on site maps
Defined as registered users who edited 10 or more times since they arrived,
and thus showed at least a modicum of involvement at one point in time.
This number can only grow. The number is very inclusive. Compare (very) active users below.
