It is really out of control. And it only seems to get worse. That being said, Akismet has only allowed one spam email through in the past 4.5 months of my blog. It has stopped about 1 legitimate comment a week. Good all the way around. I avg. over 100 spam comments a day. It is really out of control. And it only seems to get worse.

Stephen - Akismet removes the duplicate spam comments so while you might have received 30 spam comments if there were only 6 different versions then you will only see 6 in the managent area.

My Akismet plugin tells me I have something like 30 spam comments waiting and when I look in the queue there's only 6. How accurate are those stats though?
