  • Google: 42.3 million uniques
  • MapQuest: 41.5 million uniques

We’ll see if this holds over time.

    I wonder how visitors are primarily using Google Maps?
    -finding directions? (for example “from 96814 to 96835”)
    -finding places? (for example “pizza 96814”)
    -finding businesses? (for example “Edi’s Pizza”)

    You’d have to get it from comScore or Nielsen — it does exist. I don’t currently have access to it.
