But those are not things that Sweden would extradite him for. They'd lock him up for rape, yes, but not extradite him to the US.

Mail fraud, wire fraud, intellectual property theft, copyright infringement/piracy, subpeonas, a law from 1806 about people with white hair, i-dont-like-your-face, etc.

My point isn't so much that this one specific violation wouldn't qualify for extradition. It's that the laws are so intentionally vague and broad and numerous that they can be interpreted in such a way to charge _anybody_ with _something_ if they want to.
