How much bandwidth?

I'm looking to buy a domain for my site and have already bookmarked a few web hosts, but I don't know how much bandwidth I need.

I've been using this site to try to determine how much I use, but I don't know if I'm doing it right, I'll come out with anything from 7 to 133,333 visitors a month. :S

My site, DFL uses about 20MB of space, and the host I'm looking at allows 75GB/month. According to my counter, I get about 1,000 visitors a day (so 30,000 or so a month).

If anyone could help me find out how much bandwidth I use and/or a site that will let me use that much bandwidth, I will be very happy.

well what you need to do if you don't have a probram like awstats installed is download a counter that will only count unique hits (so when a crawler scans your site, or a person refreshes 100 times it won't keep counting). Thats all i can think of.
