http://csv.ozziesport.com/October%209%20-%20Wikipedia%20English%20Data.csvis
a file I have related to that.  It is about a year old and a result of
manual data mining, where I looked for user boxes and which users had
transcluded them onto their user space.  My file only covers English
Wikipedia and doesn't include every user box around.  It might be a good
place to start.  I don't think that userbox information is stored in a
separate user table, so I doubt that you would be able to get access to it
through that route. :/
