  Provided you have installed and activated the JetPack plugin http://jetpack.me on your WordPress.org install, and posted the relevant URL(s) into this forum thread, Staff will do the transfer of subscribers and stats for you. I tagged this thread for their attention.

  Hi swaroop,

  Your WordPress.com subscribers and email followers have been transferred as requested.

  Please note that any WordPress.com followers who opted to receive email updates will need to re-subscribe again on your new site through the Jetpack signup box, otherwise they’ll only see new posts in their Reader. Non-WordPress.com email subscribers will continue to get email updates.

  Please let me know if you wish for your stats to be transferred as well.

  Regards,
  Swaroop
