Where these numbers come from

Every figure in this quiz is taken from the blog post on that topic, and every one is credited to the organisation that published it. Nothing here is an estimate written for the quiz. If a post gives a range rather than a single number, the question is not used, because there would be no fair answer to grade against.

Each round draws 10 questions from 60, and never two from the same topic. The gap between what people assume and what the data says is usually wider than they expect, which is the whole reason the quiz exists.

Figures reflect the most recent data cited in each post at the time of writing.
