Misspelled or Fatfinger domains

How can you check how popular a misspelled domain is ? A hugely popular domain over two million links with one letter wrong is it valuable ?? Overture didnt help, where can you check unique searches or typein mistake searches. Thanks. Mike C

Overture didn't help?

Of course Google and Google Groups is usually a good indicator of the popularity of typos vs their actual spelling. Compare the results of a typo with the real word.

Google Groups

You can make an educated guess like that, but the only real way to tell how popular a typo domain is by registering it and checking traffic yourself.
