Digital Ocean hosting, `tests-passed`

**9,789** Api Requests in last 7 days  
(1,466 crawlers, 4,891 Logged in, 3,432 Anon)

**6,532** Pageviews

Not orders of magnitude like the OP, but still a 50% increase from the google figure. The proportions hold up historically - google consistently reports ~1.5x as many page views as API calls.
