I'd like to see someone do something similar with international airport, some of those are pretty small but the vast majority are "big".

You could also just draw a line further up the list. 100K passengers/year is under 300/day so you may be looking at a handful of regional jet flights that are mostly (or only) to the nearest significant airport.
Just eyeballing the list, what I'd consider a "significant" airport probably has a cutoff closer to a million passengers per year.

I'm not sure if there is a proper definition for an international airport, but I'd think of it as an airport with US Customs and/or Immigration services.
I think you'd be surprised how many there are, especially within a few hundred miles of the Canadian or Mexican border! My local general aviation airport, with no commercial passenger flights, is an international airport because of nearby business/industrial activity.
