What are the highst number of comments, views and favorites you've received for a story?

My story Serve and Volley in Anal has my most views (52K), most votes (366) and most Favorites (35). Nothing epically wild.

A Dream of Age and Beauty in Fetish and Chlorine Dreams in First Time are tied for most comments (10). The latter is also the second place story for the other noted statistics, behind Serve and Volley.

As an interesting note in my brain, Scotland's Finest in NonHuman has my lowest Views per Vote ratio (53), which is significantly lower than any of my other stories. But being in NonHuman, its total number of views is relatively low. But the people who do read it seem to quite like it. Which isn't unusual, not quite half of my stories are SF&F, NonHuman and Erotic Horror and all have relatively high ratings (all 'H'). Just lower overall views.
 
It's implied in some of his previous posts. There is as much of a difference in comments or favorites/view by category as there is in raw views.

I'm sure there is, I'd just be curious to see the patterns.
I suspect there might be some that surprise us.
 
Crash Into Me wins on all three fronts except views, where it's beaten (only by ~5,000) by a story a year older, but still in the same category (T/I). Of course, it's also had nine years to gather up those numbers, and we know T/I gets eyes like nobody's business, so I don't know how useful that info is for analysis.

If we narrow it down to stuff I published within the last three years, my most recent story, Chasing Cars, wins, having racked up 17,000 views, 46 favorites, and 45 comments (only two of which are from me) in a little over two months. But it also spent a number of days on the category top list shortly after publication, and was part of @lovecraft68's event, so I think luck had a lot to do with it.
 
Isn't this to a certain degree time dependent? The longer a story is up, the more views/votes one will get. True, the rate drops off but still, a story after a year will still trickle in views and votes.
A better question or comparison would be how many votes/views does a story get after, say, 4 weeks.

Not just time, but also category and following dependent. I don't believe that every follower reads every single story the people they follow post, but somebody like me with a little under 400 followers is going to get more views, on average, in two weeks than someone with only 25 if we both post a story to the same category on the same day, and someone with 3,000 followers is going to blow both of us out of the water. :)

Comments are near non existent. A game of pool in Group sex, Miss Vickie in incest but it shouldn't be. LitE put it there, there is no incest; I requested Group Sex.
