Congrats are in order for Automattic and the WordPress.com team! According to a recent report by Comscore, it looks like WordPress.com was ranked as the 33rd best web property on the internet for the month of September, with 23,125,000 total visits.
It will be interesting to see if WordPress.com continues to rise up this list over the coming months.

@ Jeff – Comscore factors the United States only. This includes home visitors, work visitors, and university visitors.
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t calculate totals from Canada, Mexico, or the other continents though, which leaves out a lot of numbers!
