You can follow this tutorial on getting a time of day report in Google Analytics. Then you can see what time of day visitors are on your site.
For my travel sites, I get traffic bumps at noon, 3-4pm, and 8-9 pm.
This allows me to know when the best time is to send out my broadcast emails and also when I should be doing my PPC advertising.
When does most of your traffic visit your site?

Eric, I think you and I can probably start leaving the office at 4pm!

My network for people with HIV/AIDS has the most traffic between 8pm-9pm and 9pm-10pm . It makes sense since we hold our group chats and Live radio broadcast at 9pm on certain evenings.
The largest peak was between 8a-10a
Here's google:
It looks like I get the most traffic between 8a-2p.
Great topic and thanks again for the tutorial!

Also tuesday is our best day of the week...
Besides the graph you get the percentages like in my previous reply.
But there is sooooooooo much more to check out, for instance the site overlay is very interesting. you can see what link has been clicked the most straight on your site...
Very proud of my network today! I achieved my first milestone of 100 members registered!
(I eat lunch at my desk as well)
