The latest Pew

Pew has launched a report on Internet health resources, studying the behaviour of 'health seekers':

Pew reports are great - the only problem is, all their respondents are Americans. Aside from Pew, there's the regular user survey that's been conducted by Georgia Tech's GVU Center since the year dot - well, since around 1994.

Perhaps one of these days some UK or European not-for-profit will take up the baton and start producing regular data about Internet behaviour in a systematic way. In the meantime, European researchers will continue to quote US stats and trend data in their reports - which may or may not be applicable. For example, I would wager that health seeking behaviour on the Internet is quite different in a country with a completely privatised health system to one dominated by public sector provision.
