Now you're REALLY stretching.
For this data to have any relevance, everybody who visited Drudge's website in the entire period from Feb to Jul would have had to have done so for the first time in their lives on Feb. Drudge's sight has been around for years. Also, basing your conclusions off of the data for a single website as compared to another completely dissimilar website is a crime against statistical analysis.

Actually for your conclusion to be valid, the assumption has to be that the traffic to Drudge Report would be declining (over half would decline to return due to the popups) and the traffic to MyWay would be increasing due to the lack of popups.
The nearly opposite is true - the Drudge Report is increasing their traffic, MyWay is declining in traffic.
Dissimilar websites? Both are third party news portals, and a fair amount of traffic on MyWay comes from Drudge Report, making a nice synergistic connection to the data.
What evidence is there to support this article?
