Talking user numbers, I have seen great web communities go down, drowning in their sheer numbers.
But 100.000 is not necessarily that much.
7-day-active is a great indication, but its not the full story.
If I were to check the percentage of active users, I would go for the continuity of user activity rather than the last activity as this figure is biased by new users rushing in.
Many people sign in but relatively few stay.
Prove me wrong, but in social media, people either dig their fangs into a system straight away, or they leave it with their accounts idling. Coming back later to something you dropped already? Might happen, but it would seem a rare thing.
So, I would suggest a different indicator to see, how many people stay:
--> last activity minus registration date.
As the newbies are likely to still make up their minds (and hej, I qualify :-)) a threshold of two weeks might seem a good idea.
But this is just a newcomer's idea.
Thanks for your work!
