           comScore Media Metrix Ranks Top 50 U.S. Web Properties for September 2009

                      Television’s New Fall Lineup Drives Traffic to TV Sites

               Education and Computer Software Sites Gain as School Year Begins

RESTON, VA, October 16, 2009 – comScore, Inc. (NASDAQ: SCOR), a leader in measuring the digital
world, today released its monthly analysis of U.S. Web activity at the top online properties for September
2009 based on data from the comScore Media Metrix service. September marked the start of the fall
television season as broadcast networks aired their season premieres, causing traffic to swell at TV sites.
Education – Information sites and Computer Software also gained as students sought resources for the
new academic year, while the Sports category soared to record highs during the September stretch run in
baseball and kickoff to football season.


“As summer fades and fall begins, Americans’ shift their focus back to school and take comfort in their
TVs as season premieres and fall sports dominate the tube,” said Jack Flanagan, comScore executive vice
president. “With nearly half of the U.S. online population visiting television sites in September, it is clear
that more than ever before Americans are turning to the Web for entertainment.”


Fall TV Lineup Draws Fans Online


The beginning of the fall season sent Americans to TV sites for information on their favorite shows or to
view episodes online, as the category grew 17 percent to 95.6 million visitors. Yahoo! TV led the
category with nearly 20 million visitors (up 63 percent), followed by AOL Television with 13 million (up
7 percent) and NBC Network with 11.4 million. CWTV grabbed the #10 position with 5.8 million
visitors, nearly tripling its audience since August.
Students Kickoff the School Year Right


As students hit the books in September, they also looked to the Web for information and resources.
Education – Information sites and Computer Software sites both saw an increase in activity as classes
resumed for students around the country. Education – Information sites grew 15 percent to 72.3 million
visitors, making it one of the fastest growing categories in September, led by Pearson Education with
nearly 17 million visitors (up 40 percent), Hot Chalk with 13 million visitors (up 64 percent), and Classes
USA with 8 million visitors (up 13 percent).


The Computer Software category grew 14 percent, attracting 34.4 million visitors in September, led by
Intuit, which grew 18 percent to 6.4 million visitors. Symantec Store followed closely with 6.2 million
visitors (up 11 percent), while Wareseeker.com ranked third with 3.7 million visitors (up 76 percent).


Competition Heats Up for Sports Nationwide


Between the approaching Major League Baseball playoffs and the NFL season kickoff, sports were top of
mind for many of Americans in September. The category reached an all-time high, attracting more than
98 million visitors, up 14 percent versus August. Yahoo! Sports ranked #1 with 38 million visitors during
the month (up 32 percent), followed by ESPN with 29 million visitors (up 21 percent) and NFL Internet

with 95 million visitors, while ESPN climbed 9 spots to #30.
