This "metric" is made available to me informally, so I avoid asking
too frequently. The latest update shows:
+---------------+---------------------+------------+
| total_domains | mail_from_5_senders | gt_50_msgs |
+---------------+---------------------+------------+
| 173181 | 13393 | 2076 |
+---------------+---------------------+------------+
which uses a slightly different "cut-off" of 5 senders rather than
10, so we don't have a direct comparison, but this should be the
metric going forward. We we have > 13k domains that get traffic

traffic (over the 8 day sample size).
Just in case this is not clear, Gmail is not presently using DANE
outbound, rather I send them a list of DANE domains from time to
time, and get back the above numbers.
