Neat! Some feedback:

- Could we add a little ❔ tooltip icon or something next to the Today button? This would tell you what timezone “today” is based in. Especially useful for the Visits stat, since my Norwegian “night” might not be the same as [meta.discourse.org](http://meta.discourse.org)’s.

- Visited vs visited&posted is a cool stat to have available at a glance; looking forward to using it! But what does “not visited” mean?

- The pie chart in the Topics widget is also a bit confusing to me. Maybe it’s just the mix of black/white and actual colour coding that’s throwing me off 😛 Are those 3 sections in the pie chart connected to the top categories, or are those two separate datasets?

I’ve got tons of different stats I’d like to see, but if I could only pick one, it’d probably have to be this one:

> [@How to quantify the success of your community?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-quantify-the-success-of-your-community/40229/4):
>
> The one thing that I find to be super important is a regular influx of new users who stick around. Without new blood, your site is going to die eventually. That’s an absolute truth. This is why we have a todo item to send automatic encouragement emails to new users who sign up, post, get likes, and otherwise show good rookie potential.

@DeanMarkTaylor already [made a query for it](https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-cool-data-explorer-queries-have-you-come-up-with/43516/4).

The stat would be:

### Trust Levels Achieved: 34 (up 5%)

- TL1: 20
- TL2: 10
- TL3: 4
- TL4: 0
