The correlation generator tool allows you to test the predictiveness of citation impact from either earlier downloads or citations.
This tool has only been tested with Mozilla Firefox. Uses the Chart Widget developed by Emil A Eklund.

Download data are downloads of articles (based only on the UK arXiv mirror).
Citation data are citations from other arXiv articles (based on Citebase).
The Impact Histogram graphs show the distribution of articles by either the number of downloads or citations to each article.
The Latency Histogram graphs show the distribution of downloads or citations by the delay between the article being deposited and later being downloaded or cited.
