A few things of note:
- SmokeDetector has relatively few hits compared to Jan's script. Granted, his has a ton of false positives, but I was surprised by the smaller number of hits SmokeDetector actually has.
- The "system_add_date" in the post_types table isn't accurate until 8/6/2014. I was caching the date when I added a record. That's why it looks like those dates in July have 50K questions a day. Oops. Other than the date on those records, the detection rules are accurate.
