Um, you don't know what typeins are. Sorry.

When you say "How many typeins he gets on Google" that means you still don't have a clue.

Once again, only because I don't really know you like some of the others and since Ice is willing to cut you some slack... I guess I will also

A TYPEIN is when a surfer types the address directly into the browser address bar. This is not "Google" traffic, this could also be considered "bookmarkers" because really, they are the same. Even if the homepage was "about:blank" and they typed an address in, its considered typein traffic. Even if the Google homepage was on the screen and they type in an address, there is no referrer value for typein traffic.

You can see Google Search engine referrers because they all have the *google.* domain in all of the search results. The queries are different but the domain name is easily filtered. Every stats program worth their salt will have SE traffic filters, so you can see how many are coming from search engines.

Anyways, hope that helps.
