Has Django served an excess of 100k daily visits?

I'm building a web application with Django. The reasons I chose Django were:

• I wanted to work with free/open-source tools.
• I like Python and feel it's a long-term language, whereas regarding Ruby I wasn't sure, and PHP seemed like a huge hassle to learn.
• I'm building a prototype for an idea and wasn't thinking too much about the future. Development speed was the main factor, and I already knew Python.
• I knew the migration to Google App Engine would be easier should I choose to do so in the future.
• I heard Django was "nice".

Now that I'm getting closer to thinking about publishing my work, I start being concerned about scale. The only information I found about the scaling capabilities of Django is provided by the Django team (I'm not saying anything to disregard them, but this is clearly not objective information...).

Has an independent development team reported building a Django-based site that reliably handles an excess of 100k daily visits?
