Always nice to have a nice clean interface as I believe these statistics are hidden here on the forums. I'm not sure of the overall accuracy of those statistcs, but like TryNinja said they seem to be somewhat up to date on the statistics included on the site.
For now, the Bitcointalk livecount stats site provides very limited stat types:
- Total posts
- Total topics
- Total members
- Total online members
All of these fours are available in the
forum's statistics center but I see it has at least one advantage compare to what provides by the forum:
Statistics are automatically updated (almost realtime statistics) and guest don't have to refresh page (F5) to get newest ones. However, I still think that we don't actually need such real time stats. What we need is stats for a specific time points, start- / end-days of months, years, etc. So if OP plans to keep the site operatings for too long, the site needs more columns or categories for different type of stats, especially for summary stats.
BTW, it is better if OP develops his site further and provides additional statistics that have not yet given by the forum or were stopped updating for a long time. Some of them are:
- Forum History (using forum time offset) - at the bottom of the Statistics center. It were stopped updating since December 2017.
- Total autobanned/nuked users
- Total merit transacted
For #2: It is impossible to get the total of autobanned/ nuked users within the whole history of the forum. loyceclub provides such stats, but it only started since at January 04, 2019, 08:03:06 AM.
(Un)official pages that store forum dataI have a thread on this too but it was updated weekly, not real time.
At-least-1 sent & earned merits users , excludes autobanned/ nuked. Stats!Lastly, OP should check
DdmrDdmr's page too. That page provides many types of stats and I don't remember them to give you a quick summary here.
