Google and Yahoo both offer Ability to add RSS feeds to users personalized home page. While checking my personal server's access log, I noticed a nice little information that Yahoo sends with each request. It sends you data on how many users added your feed and how many times a feed has been loaded on users homepages. Here is a snippet from from yahoo and google requests from Apache access logs:
216.39.58.78 - - [28/Aug/2008:13:19:43 -0700] "GET /personalfeed.rss HTTP/1.0" 304 - "-" "YahooFeedSeeker/2.0 (compatible; Mozilla 4.0; MSIE 5.5; http://publisher.yahoo.com/rssguide; users 1; views 247)"
209.85.238.24 - - [28/Aug/2008:13:27:11 -0700] "GET /personalfeed.rss HTTP/1.1" 200 2173 "-" "Feedfetcher-Google; (+http://www.google.com/feedfetcher.html)"
Nicely done Yahoo.
