The question is whether it is an accessible information or classified as commercial?
Is it is within programs' interest to publish such?
My personal oppinion is that it scores around 250k. It reflects numerous transatlantic crossings each month with some mid-haul experiences.

I'd just like to provide some perspective on the relation between status miles and miles flown:
Quoting flyingalex (Reply 2): Lufthansa's top tier (HON Circle) requires 600K miles within two calendar years.
It does require 600K status miles, but (unless they've changed that again) those must be earned in business or first class where you can already accrue multiples of the miles that you've actually flown. Add the 25% mileage bonus that you get as soon as you're M&M silver (lowest tier) and 600K status miles is nowhere near the same as 600K miles on an aircraft.
