Yep, I think in some ways a FOAF 'blob' in the LOD diagram is misleading.

FOAF I think is rather a vocabulary element present in many of the 
datasets and documents being linked. Dublin Core, SIOC, DOAP etc too.

There is also a notion of a 'FOAF document' but this is pretty informal.

What would be interesting (very very interesting) would be to have 
metrics for the % of documents, sources etc that have graph structures 
matching some common SPARQL patterns. For FOAF and for other vocabs. A 
lot of folk would find this very useful I'm sure...
