Here's some (already cited in reply several times):

For other disciplines than physics, they'll first have to self-archive,
then we can do the counting...
To repeat a point blithely overlooked in these quibbles: This is about
the self-archiving of the REFEREED literature. The preprints are only a
bonus (plus a strategic ally in legally circumventing copyright
restrictions on self-archiving):

Forget about the preprints that never get submitted to or accepted in
refereed journals. Those are not what this is all about.
