Comment(by aagbsn):

 I agree with Karsten -- we shouldn't report statistics that cannot be
 verified -- after all, someone might mess up and report the wrong
 numbers... :\

 That said, knowing the # of ec2bridges is useful internally.

 Replying to [comment:4 runa]:
 > Do we know how many were created after March 15 this year?

 If an unsanitized archive of the bridge descriptors exist we can find out.
 Ponticum.tpo does not keep an archive of the bridge descriptors.

 Also:

 {{{
 grep "^r ec2bridge" /srv/bridges.torproject.org/from-authority
 /networkstatus-bridges -A1|grep " Running"|wc -l
 38
 }}}

 Do we have an idea why the number of bridges seems to fluctuate so much?
