Why not get the various clamav installations to report back counts of detected viruses in the last 24 hours (as a rough 'n' ready figure) whenever they download new signatures? Presumably you could use the existing encryption techniques in play for the sigs to verify the validity of such a report. Obviously some ppl wouldn't want it known what virii they are receiving, etc but presumably the stats would be anonymous and this process would be opt-in rather than opt-out.
