I have always wondered what the stats are like for well-known websites like google.com, yahoo.com, flickr.com and digg.com and today I found exactly what I wanted to know. <\/p>\n

Some 3 months ago, complete.com posted a blog post on Top-50 Websites - Ranked by Unique Visitors<\/a>. <\/p>\n

First on the list is yahoo.com, standing at 130,078,549, followed by google.com at 124,544,834. There are quite a few big names web 2.0 sites which made it to the list; for example: youtube.com, flickr.com, facebook.com, digg.com and smarter.com. There are also a couple of sites in the list which I have not heard of. <\/p>\n

Have a look at the chart below and see for yourself, while I take some time off to check out all the websites in the list. <\/p>\n
