Does anyone know how many Bitcoins are mined per day? Or per year, or both?

I'm assuming you're looking for the precise amounts generated (say at the current rate of ~7.16 blocks per hour) or other historical data?

Otherwise a quick calculation would be: 25 [BTC per block] x 6 [blocks per hour] x 24 [hours in a day] x 365.25 [days in a year] = BTC1,314,900
Change out parts in the equation to suit your mathematical needs.

I'm trying to calculate the ratio of the fluidity of the currency versus the generation of the currency.

Fluidity I can calculate by averaging the transactions on the blockchain. But I don't know how many Bitcoins are being produced per day.
