Roughly 425 visits/day, 750 pageviews/day, not counting bots. Relatively tiny, though rare stories could pull in a few thousand views in a few days.
Tweets – including Newsbytes, which are an important part of our coverage – tend to get 500-1000 impressions each; this article reached 5,000 due to retweets/likes. Facebook activity is about a tenth of that.
Good content which remains relevant has a very long tail. Stuff like Patch's FurFling piece or Fred's fandom retrospective average around 30 views a day, and over 50 stories got more than 100 views in the last 90 days. Often it's not the stories editors feel are important! (Which is one reason we tend not to refuse all that many submissions.)
