Submissions is only a small piece of the puzzle. The number of active commenter's and even the number of consumer-only are quite important measures to get an accurate picture of growth.
In a community there can be small core of active submitters, but there could also be a large number of passive users clicking ads. Someone might never have made a submission, but could have given or received gold, as well.
