Five years of site traffic data might better indicate the extent to which people have found this approach helpful in the long term. Other factors can mitigate usage, but I would think a forum people find helpful would demonstrate continued traffic growth.
Along those lines, do you intend to collate the data from after January 2005 with the prior years? It will be difficult to monitor long-term trends if the current peak-traffic months of 2003 are not shown alongside new data.
