That metric does not give 75%. This page shows that there are a total of 16521 messages in sage-support: http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/about Searching maxima yields 2620 results: http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/search?group=sage-support&q=maxima&qt_g=Search+this+group We have 2620/16521 = 0.158586042007... or "about 16%". CAVEAT: I don't trust Google groups search results. Take the above with a grain of salt.
