Inaccurate; there is no paid version per sé, but use on a site with  
more than 5 million pageviews requires $30/month minimum advertising  
budget dedicated to Google AdWords.  I'm not clear from our logs  
whether we have more than 5 million non-version-check pageviews per  
month, actually.... is there an easy way to see that breakdown, Zac?
