Well, yeah, but given the difficulty that we've had getting the book onto Amazon at all...

Actually, yes, I'd love to have the analyses, as we could use the data. Thanks!

This is the best analysis I've seen.

You can automatically track your book's rankings here. (At least you used to be able to. There's a new home page and I didn't take the time to figure out what's going on.) It's mostly accurate. I have my own script that scrapes the ranking every hour -- yours won't change nearly that often -- that's more accurate.
