I love statistics.
Me too :)
Registries must self report whois look up data. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/registry-reports For example, in .com April 2016 ALONE “Whois” Queries IN MILLIONS 15,000.3 Web-based Whois 6,960,159
.com is a "thin whois" there is no end-user identifiable data in the registry results, simply the expiry date, status, registrar and nameservers. So a fantastic example of whois being used and/or useful and yet not needing the bulk of the proposed RDS datasets :) Rob
