I believe it says they grew to 16 million VISITORS not users? Did I miss something?

This says that last August they had around 86K users, so by now they should have around 100K. The huge visitor to user ratio is a sign of their success, I think. (I'm assuming SO represents most of their traffic) Edit: Wikipedia page says: "As of September 2010, Stack Overflow has about 243,000 registered users"

    If you look at the users page on StackOverflow.com, you'll see there are over 320,000 registered users there on just that site alone.

    That SO answer was posted on Aug '09. So it wasn't last August.

      Yep, my bad. So they went from ~86K in August 2009 to ~250K in September 2010. That's impressive! I didn't realize SO had that many members.

        Maybe just people forgetting which OpenID login they used.
