I didn't record this data. I did, however, record data about the  
document mode (quirks, standards, almost standards), which is a pretty  
good indicator of Transitional vs. Strict but doesn't say anything  
about XHTML 1.0 vs. HTML 4.01.  I also have output of an HTML 4.01  
Transitional validation run without this data waiting for further  
analysis.

I'll record this data if I rerun the study.
