I know the visualization graphs show the data is a visually pleasing manner, but some interested parties might be more inclined to view all the raw data in a table format. What do you think of adding a page of "raw" data which allows sorting and filtering?

I think that's an awesome idea!

It's a pretty large spreadsheet though, would we want some kind of pagination? At what point is simply providing the xls a better option?

LOL I titled the page accessibility... I was also thinking about somehow making the graph text more readable with larger text.

Yeah, there are over 11k rows... I think DataTables shouldn't have too much of an issue with this data - check out this demo. It might use a lot of memory though, so maybe also including a spreadsheet would be a good option.
