Hi there, and welcome.  I'm the operator of grep.geek, the search engine that 
recently switched to mnogosearch.  I do not have any sort of official list of 
the total number of OpenNic websites, only a list of all the domains that exist 
(which includes NewNations domains).  That list currently has 7186 entries, but 
of course many of those domains are not attached to any active websites.

I am still waiting for mnogo to complete the first round of crawling, however it 
currently has about 1 million pages indexed, with another 1.8 million pages left 
to check.  Again, this includes both OpenNic and NewNations domains.

I do NOT index the whole web.  I am only interested in indexing pages which 
exist on OpenNic domains and our peers... however there are quite a few websites 
which only provide a mirror of existing ICANN-based websites.  For example, 
there are a number of wikileaks mirrors, and I have also seen a mirror of 
wikipedia.  I do include a *filter* option on my search page which attempts to 
restrict searches to within a certain group of pages, but that is based only on 
the TLD.

I certainly have no objections to having OpenNic sites listed in another search 
engine, and unless anyone else has an issue with it, I could provide a copy of 
the script I use to generate the list of domain names, to help you get started 
in indexing our sites.
