Dear Community Members,

I would like to learn the various methods and tools used to determine the total number of blogs in a given region? Has anyone attempted such an endeavour and what were there findings? I would like to explore this for my country to identify the number of blogs in Pakistan, categorize them within active and non-active (within a given criteria of number of posts) etc. Kindly point me to available work, methodology, tools if any, how such data mining would actually be carried out etc.

Appreciating your support in advance.
