Those numbers are huge.  I expected maybe 15 per day at the most.  Thanks for the answer.  And how about linking my water fountain to lasers?  My capital cities would look like a Pink Floyd concert.

It's actually quite a difficult question to answer, as there are of course towns also being abandoned by inactives, and the difference depends on how many inactive accounts we "throw out" for each new player who joins (something we tweak occasionally).  There are also second/third etc towns being created as well.

In terms of raw data, though, there are generally between 50 and 80 new towns added to Illyriad each day.

For example, the last 14 days:

I want something tremendously cool to happen every time I click on the fountain in the middle of my town map.

We have access to those stats.  towndata.xml has us covered, if we take the time to extract the data into more useful format.  It's on my TODO list, and partly what my XML Parsing post was about.
