Special thanks to Infinion, who made these amazing graphs of the data I collected.
To start off with, here's a bar chart of the top three Rule 34 producers.
This chart represents more than five years' worth of Rule 34 data. In order to more closely examine the numbers, Infinion has broken the data into more manageable semi-annual charts.

Which brings us to December 2015.
To get an idea of how far My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has come since its premiere, here's a chart highlighting the monthly numerical data and moving average of MLP porn.
For those who desire a more consolidated look at the raw data, here's the numbers for the top three porn producers, as well as their monthly increase.
Now let's take a look at the Rule 34 stats for the mane six. Here's their master chart.
In order to discover what these numbers mean, we'll need to delve deeper. In order to do that, we'll break down the data into semi-annual chunks.

I hope everyone is able to have an enjoyable holiday season with the people who make life worth living. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
I'll be back next year with another Rule 34 update!
Since you're now posting every second month, perhaps you could list each month's increase for the franchises and characters in the same box.

I think he was just busy with Christmas and life this time. More of the same that caused him to go every second month in the first place earlier this year.
Hi, just wanted to say, did you know that if you go to Derpiboo.ru and filter by the "explicit" tag you find an astounding result of 109.975 images? that being ONLY explicit, not counting "suggestive" or "questionable" material which amounts to 46.224 images and 48.313 images respectively
Of course this is a Mlp images page only, and there is oc and other stuff there, besides maybe less restrictions,but still, an amazing amount of R34 material.
I wonder if there is a pokemon exclusive image site, and how the amount differs from the rule34 site, because with these numbers, MLP actually surpassed his closest contender a while ago...

Paheal doesn't allow images of OCs without any canon characters, so a direct comparison between the sites is more difficult than that.
