I agree that the SuperStats data isn't perfect, , but that doesn't mean you
can't learn anything from it.

For one thing, it's a lot better than just a list of monitor sizes (actually
monitor settings but I'll continue to use "sizes" as others do) than so many
site provide.  

By also getting the browser widths, I can figure out that if 90% of the
visitors have 800px or wider monitors and nearly 40% have their browsers set
to 700px or less, a whole bunch of visitors "set their windows based on
their wants rather than on available space".
