This number increases as the time passes, 52% of intermediate to advanced learners took the test (or estimated their level), and a whopping 75.4% of long term learners (> 5 years).

The average visitor is a male (76%), between 18 and 34 years old (82%), whose most common native language is English (75.8%) followed by Japanese (5.4% this could be due to visitors using a computer in Japanese, for instance at school), French (4.4%), German (3.9%), Spanish (2.6%), Portuguese (2%) and other languages (5.9%). The language and country were inferred from their browser's settings and might not reflect the mother language of the visitor.

The 598 respondents have learned Japanese (23) or are still learning (575). This article presents the results and analysis of a survey on Japanese learning habits.
