Off the top of my head here are some:
1. What is the availability and travel radius of the official?
2. Does the association work both boys and girls games?
3. Does the local area play girls at one site and boys at another or mix the games in the same gym?
4. Does the area use 2 or 3 officials for games?
5. Is this a large area with several games on certain nights and many games during a week or small area with relatively few games?
6. How many officials are there in the area?
7. What is the official's rating within his area compared to others?
8. What is the philosophy of the assignor? Spread the games around or work the top guys to death?

Given all of these differences from one place to another, I doubt that giving a raw game count would be helpful to anyone in particular.
Actually it is very helpful to myself. I realize there are many factors to take into account but amongst other things it satiates my curiosity.
