At Primenet (where news is one of all too few things they actually do
very well) right now there are 33936 active groups.  Of those 7033 are
currently empty and 1146 of them remain virgin (never had anything at
all in them).  Not that this means a whole lot in terms of performance
but these ratios have been pretty typical over the past few years...
