Hello there:
http://www.trance.co.il had 2,479,902 page views @ Aug 2005 (Range Total: 2,479,902 , Daily Average: 79,996.84) ... Acording to Urchin 5 stats.
Site is on FreeBSD 4.7 + Apache 1.3.33 , PHP 4.3.4 , MySQL 3.23.58 .....
**SHARED SERVER** ( XOOPS 2.1.3 )

By "large scale" I mean a site that has more than 1 million users and more than 5 million page views a month. We estimate peak concurrent users at about 100,000.
site is not so interactive lately (we didn't have the time to maintain it the last year, so the amount of transactions is quite low, users are mostely reading, not posting).
I don't think our peaks were more then a few hundreds.
by your numbers it's more likely should be a few milions of page views a day, not a month...
anyway....
since our audiance comes from the whole globe, the load spread on almost 24 hours, which helps a lot.
a few more things:
- we upgraded to MySql 4.1.1 lately and we feel the load now: a lot of database timeouts and so...
- we expirience problems with php.ini (script execution times and so ... ) which begins after about 2000 and require a lot of memory on server and configuring php.ini acordingly.
hope that helps a bit
