Infosthetics tipped me off to a site called “WikiRank”, which creates embeddable javascript widgets that show sparklines and graph for page popularity, comparing up to 4 terms in a single chart.
WikiRank [wikirank.com] shows a series of sparklines to denote those Wikipedia articles that are the most read, and those pages that are gaining in popularity. In addition, one can explore each article’s detail page via search, which includes an article excerpt, traffic numbers and a web-embeddable traffic chart that compares the relative popularity of up to 4 other topics.
Click inside to see a chart I created comparing the popularity of 3ds Max, Maya, ParaView, and VisIt.
