The New York Times (free registration required) is running a story about
the performance of NASA's web site over the weekend, and some of the
changes they made to handle the load.  NASA introducted their new web site
at Midnight, the morning of the loss of Columbia, it experienced a 25-fold

As several folks have pointed out, NASA is working on a lot of other stuff
right now.  So network stats are probably low on the priority list.  But
appears to be making an effort to release whatever information they can.
