Nice idea. I've added a graph to your post, - the more visualizations the better. I think you could have split your data on training set and test set. It would be interesting to see how well it performs on a few know values, not just one.

Thank you Vitaliy. It seems much more interesting now. :-)

I had very limited values. I will consider it in the next versions that I use weekly stats and probably more traffic data.

You can get the data as

dataUSA = Entity["Country", "UnitedStates"][
   EntityProperty["Country", "CivilianUnemploymentRate", 
       {"Date" -> Interval[{DateObject[{1900}], Today}]}]];

DateListPlot[data, ImageSize -> Full, AspectRatio -> 1/4, PlotTheme -> "Detailed"]

Hi Sam. It's good. But data on wolfram database is outdated. (the latest stat is for 4-5 months ago)

But I'll appreciate it if you can help me about gathering websites traffic. I can do it only for the past year, but not more!

When I evaluate this notebook, I get this error:

"PredictorFunction::Incompatible variable type (NumericalVector) and variable value"

What is the output supposed to look like? I'm interested in neural networks, but I don't know much about them. Could we add additional variables?

Oh. My bad! In the last line, there is a function named "f", it had to be visitShow. :|

You can change it or download the new version of the notebook ;)

The output is only a number (7853 in this case). but in other neural networks can be a class or number (or sth that I don't know)

Of course we can add new variables to it. (even if it is not like others. for example number of crimes committed!)

I'm not expert in neural networks also. I would be glad if anyone can suggest a suitable network to train.
