"In January, Wikipedia first appeared on comScore's top 10 hottest 
properties on the Web with 42.9 million unique visitors. That is thanks 
in large part to Google -- Wikipedia's page designs are optimized to be 
picked up by the search giant, which often lists a Wikipedia entry among 
the top five results for a term search."

With ~150,000 visitors in January, OWW has only 2-3 orders of magnitude 
to go toward the world domination :)
