US Social Networking Stats

Compete.com served up some new numbers about Social-Networking stats some days back.

They have put Facebook in the lead with about 68 million unique visitors, while MySpace is at 58 million.

Total Visits: Facebook recorded a massive 1.1 billion total visits, while MySpace is at 810 millon.
i.e. approximately an average of 17 visits per visitor for Facebook and 14 visits per visitor for MySpace.

Visits per visitor are not be mistaken with pageviews (Caroline McCarthy @ cnet seems to have equated monthly visits with pageviews).

Pageviews will be a far greater number!  10 times the number of total monthly visits would be a safe assumption.

Orkut (Which is still #1 in India) is not even in the Top 20 in the US.

Note: These are numbers recorded only for US visitors. Another thing to note is that this is entirely based on Web browser data in the U.S. So something like Twitter which is highly accessed via 3rd party applications might actually have a far bigger reach!
