isint kinda impossibkle to have a countdown for numbers? I alwasy figured we posted them as we got them, like usually we get them on a certain day and for the most part its consitent but every so often we dont

It could be, I'm not sure how long after he gets the numbers from all the sources it takes to the compile the data and then post it. It probably would at least be very difficult to have it countdown to the seconds, but maybe there could be a countdown by days until when he normally gets the data, and after he gets it, change the countdown to hours, however long it normally takes to compile and post the data. Again, I have no idea of what the process is between collecting, compiling and posting, so it might not be possible, but if it is, I think it could increase traffic.  It seemed like today with the live blog, since people knew when it started, traffic grew with anticipation, and I think something similar could happen with a countdown to the release of the data.
