Numerics Rising in Top Global Sites
To give you a sense of how Chinese numeric sites are rising in the Alexa global site rankings, as Chinese internet penetration continues to grow rapidly.
51.la is ranked #322 in Alexa globally, #30 in China. Apparently only a year ago it was ranked around #10,000, so it's quite a jump.
Also, 58.com is ranked #450 globally, and #42 in China. Last time we reported on it, it was ranked #759 globally and #81 in China.
1133.cc is ranked #672 globally, and #68 in China. A year ago, this appears to have been ranked lower than #10,000.

Update on the NNNNN.com Landscape
It appears that a significant portion of NNNNN.com's bought almost 2 years ago in the buyout are still registered. Doing some random sampling today, I found that in a random sample of 2500 5-digit numbers, only 233 are available for registration. This suggests that 9,320 are available to be registered, with a margin of error of 1.94. This is about 1/2 of the NNNNN.com's that were available a few weeks before the buyout. I will try to find out more about who is holding or buying these domains and report back. In the meantime, here is the available domain list from the random sample so you can see how they are distributed. As would be expected, a significant portion of the available domains (16%) start with "0", as these are the generally the weakest. Only 2 domains that start with "1" were available in the sample.

New Popular Numeric Site
I just checked Alexa.com's rankings for the top 100 site in China, and the old standards were there, but there was a new entry, 58.com. This site a year ago was only in the top 10,000 global sites, now it is in the top 1,000 (#759), and is in the top 100 in China (#81). So it has really shot up.
Now what this site offers, I have no idea... It looks like a directory of some sort, possibly an Ebay-time auction site? Who knows, it's all Chinese to me.

Random Snapshot of the NNNNN.com Landscape
Post-buyout, it is interesting to look at what the NNNNN.com landscape looks like. This is hopefully the first of many random samplings of the NNNNN.com's to see whether they are developed sites and what types of sites they are and who owns them. This is a very crude analysis, I just looked quickly to see whether it was an Chinese site, Marchex site, or parked, and if there was no site or parked, I made a brief survey of who the owner was (if there was any Asian-sounding name, I just marked it as Chinese, with no intent to offend anybody just to get a quick survey). Here is the results from looking at 102 randomly generated 5-digit numbers:
50 are Marchex zip code sites
12 have no sites but Chinese owners (it appears)
8 are parked sites with Chinese owners (it appears)
8 are parked sites with unknown owners (I couldn't find them using a quick whois lookup)
8 have been deleted and are available
7 are parked sites with US owners (it appears)
5 have developed Chinese sites (it appears)
2 have no sites but have US owners (it appears)
1 is a parked site with a Japanese owner
1 is pending delete
Although the sample has a significant margin of error, it seems to comport with previous random samples in terms of the number of Marchex sites, and it comports with the recent random samplings suggesting that about 10% of NNNNN.com's are available, whereas before the buyout in February, 2008, about 20% of NNNNN.com's are available. Of non-Marchex sites, 26 have Asian owners, 9 have US owners, and 8 have unknown owners. Not surprisingly, all the non-Marchex developed sites are Chinese.
