Unfortunately, Overture with extension is not always an exact science. There is no formula, just approximation.

I have one domain that returns 90 results searching in Overture with Extension. This domain gets around 50 typeins a day. I have another domain with 100 results in Ovt /w TLD and it gets nothing. Then I have other domains that are generic with ZERO results searching Overture with the extension. But they get some nice typein traffic.

To answer the original question...

How many type-ins do you think this domain gets? ...If overture says 1300 when its typed xxxx.com?
Unless someone or some program was doctoring the results with excessive searches, then the domain probably receives a very large amount of typeins per day. I would venture to guess 500+ ...could be more could be less.

Any surfer who searches for a domain name with the extension, probably will also try to put it in their address bar.
