  Yup.  My copy of the data shows the following:

  count|obs_count
-------+---------
1499347|        1
 215704|        2
  90208|        3

   ....

    168|      100
    121|      101
     84|      102
     74|      103
     55|      104
     22|      105
      6|      106

  So my database has 6 stars seen 106 times.  Nyah-nyah-nyah :-)

  But I agree with you, it's time to start doing something with the data.

  Exactly.  I am working on this right now.  How much will I manage to
finish before the AAS meeting?  Only The Shadow knows :-)
