tommjames:
ĉi+correlative:
bĉi (ti|ĉi)(o|u|el|am|e|om|al|es)b
Suma nombro de trafoj: 4295.

correlative+ĉi:
b(ti|ĉi)(o|u|el|am|e|om|al|es) ĉib
Suma nombro de trafoj: 2641.
Good to know. Thanks. I have always felt that ĉi before the correlative is more natural.

It is just like how people in the old days used to say:
I like this here hat.

They make fun of this on cartoons sometimes.

Many thanks tommjames - So my intuitions were right, judging by the Tekstaro, but the frequency of correlative+ĉi is not as low as I had expected.
