Subject: Stats on Arabic Web Sites Query

Dear Arabic list members,

Could someone provide me with any statistics on Arabic Web Sites ?
- How much Arabic web sites exist over the world ?
- How much in each Arabic country (or in some of them) ?
- What are the most used character encodings (CP-1256, ISO-6, etc.) ?
- What is the percentage of each character encoding ?
- What is the percentage of image-based web sites ?
- Are there still many web pages with images ?

I've already sent this query to the list but unfortunately
I got no more than 3 answers that were only personal opinions.

Many thanks to people who answered me before.
And thank you in advance to people who may answer again.

Of course I will make the answers available for all of you.
