Hello Björn!

 Did I hear my name being called.

 There is some form of statistics, but as always you have to know how it
 is assembled.

 These numbers are based on dividual nodelines, AKA's are not moved into one
 value. Pots only nodes and E-mail transports are not included, so in essence
 the this is only about Binkp capable systems, that publish hostnames or
 have their ip-address registered with binkp.net.

 For all hostnames the return of a dns query is separated is three groups.
 Group 1. No hostname found (NXdomain)
 Group 2. A IP4 address is returned but no IPv6 address
 Group 3. A IPv6 address is returned and possibly a IPv4 address.

 IP adresses listed in the nodelist are added to the second group.
 No attempt is made to verify if the systems are live.
 Below Group 1 is separated into Zones.

   Group 1      total   Z1      Z2      Z3     Z4
   NXdomain      116    41      63      0      12

   Group 2      total   Z1      Z2      Z3     Z4
   IPv4 Nodes -  878   260     589      17     12

   Group 3      total   Z1      Z2      Z3     Z4
   IPv6 Nodes -   87    26      48      12      1

 Not all nodes with hostnames, that return IPv6 addresses support IPv6.
 A comparison with the list of IPv6 capable nodes in the Nodelist is a job
 for another day.

 Disclaimer:
 Nodes with Hostnames that only return an IP address during ZMH are
 included in Group 1.
