Answer 1

www2.stats.govt.nz  old stats - I think prob around the 1/2 mill by now.  

As for earthquakes in the Wellington region?  This site is good.  I often feel a slight tremor and check it out.

www.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/quakes/re... - 42k - 24 Jun 2007 -

Got this on a Santiago search http://www.myforecast.com/bin/earthquake...

San Francisco search quake.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/San_Franci... - 9k - 24 Jun 2007 -

Jakarta link - earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww... - 23k -

I hope this gives you some help in your project.  One thing I'd like to mention is that NZ had the 2 most violent earthquakes in the world a few days before the big quake/tsunami in Indonesia.  Lucky to be a sparsely populated country.  

So very sad for all the people who had family or friends  who died.
