The Administrators' toolbar has this feature that displays how many daily "views" the wiki has for the past week. I'm not certain if "views" means "views of any page on the wiki" or "unique IP address visitors" (i.e. if one person reads a hundred pages, does that count as 1 or 100?)
Still, it's a general measure of how popular the wiki seems to be.
In general for the past year, during the active season when new episodes were airing in Season 4, we had between 2.5 and 3 million views a day. Season 4 finale night it was up to 3.2 million views. In the off season since, we've still averaged anywhere between 250,000 and 300,000 on a given day (sometimes a little more, i.e. when new casting announcements came out of San Diego Comic Con).
Now the view-count isn't archived for more than one week, so I thought it might be informative to keep a running list.--The Dragon Demands (talk) 18:20, February 3, 2015 (UTC)

- Note: The first four episodes of Season 5 leaked out online around the time of the premiere; HBO had sent out screener copies of the first four episodes, and someone copied theirs and put it on the internet. The TV ratings seem to have taken a slight dip as a result. Looking at these numbers, that seems to explain why the day-after ratings surge for each episode on Mondays declined from 1.8 to 1.1 to 1 million...only to then increase back to 1.4 million after episode 5, despite the fact that it wasn't a massive cliffhanger, compared to even episode 4.
