If you are interested in monitoring participation trends in your online
groups, try viewing the participation stats. There's a link to these
from the group home page. The stats page shows not only the number of
posts made to the group per month, but the number of group members who
posted.
Here, for example is the stats page for this group.
http://onlinegroups.net/groups/ogn_admins/stats.html
How many people are actually posting to your online groups? And how many posts
do they make?
On the home page of your group, you will find a link that says "View the
posting statistics". This shows you the number of posts, and the number of
authors per month, since your group started.
Here is an example.

Hi all,
Is there also a way of finding out who the authors are and what the
topic of the posts without manually going through and collating the
information?

The default Topics page
http://onlinegroups.net/groups/ogn_admins/messages/topics.html
shows you topics data ordered by the date of the latest post to each
topic. Hint" by using the "earlier" and "later" topics links, you can
display more than twenty topics at a time, as in the following example.
http://onlinegroups.net/groups/ogn_admins/messages/topics.html?start=0&end=50
On the Topics page, you'll see a link to "Posts in…" your group. From
there, you can access a Summary of Posts, which shows headers for all
posts. You could export that data and manipulate it in a spreadsheet.
