coasttocoastam.com website traffic as proxy for ratings

If we use website traffic as a proxy for radio ratings (lets face it, radio ratings are made up as much as scientifically developed and Premiere is the worst liar going):

George is not driving any increase in ratings over the last couple years, and there may be an erosion in listeners:

I can't see any possible way there would be an increase in ratings. Unless people are just turning on the radio for their pets when they go out for the evening. Which is a horrible way to treat your animals.

You know, has anyone ever followed up on a connection between owners leaving George playing on the radio and coming home hours later to find, say, their pet birds dead in their cages? For that matter has anyone ever thought to check for a connection between uninterrupted listening to Noory and death by Spontaneous Human Combustion? "Chief, it's the damnedest thing. We found nothing but the old lady's feet, some ashes and a completely undamaged radio playing George Noory...."

My rats are in my office, and while usually active at night, Coast to Coast AM puts them right to sleep.
