That equates to 330M/365d = ~900k loads per day.

So he's paying a discount, even.

But that’s not accounting for gzip.
This. Firefox's dev tools says 3.38KB transferred (including redirect and favicon). Taking that into account, it's closer to 5 billion page loads.
Well if he’s getting 6 million a day that’s a little over 2 billion hits a year. Maybe he’s overprovisioned an AWS instance or something.

I think he's including the transfers from twitter in the 55kb (which is over 50k of it), which wouldn't cost him anything personally
If the page is 55KB, that means that a single GB is about 18K page loads, but let's make that 15K page loads due to various overhead.
To spend 2000$, you'd need to send about 22TB, which are about 330M page loads.
