Re-estimate for 2 million mark Wikipedia English Articles

Now I've got a full day of data. I count that yesterday's 24 hours obtained a new 2147 English Wikipedia articles. At this rate, in New Zealand, we will have 2 million English articles on Monday, September 10, sometime between 7.30 am and 8 am! Woo hoo!

However I wonder how good my estimate for articles per day will work out to be and I wonder how much Wikipedia English articles per day fluctuate? Any guesses?
