Data Methodology

Sources: All data is sourced directly from platform APIs – the Chaturbate affiliate API (chaturbate.com/affiliates/api/onlinerooms/) and the StripCash API for Stripchat. Both endpoints return real-time room status for all currently broadcasting performers.

Update frequency: Room data is polled every 2 minutes via a server-side WordPress cron job. Numbers shown on this page reflect the state of both platforms at the time of your page load (within a 2-minute window).

Viewer counts: Viewer figures are platform-reported concurrent viewers – the number of unique connections actively watching a stream at poll time. These are the same numbers displayed on each platform’s public room listings.

Coverage: The Chaturbate API returns data for all publicly visible rooms. The StripCash API returns up to 200 rooms per query. Total room counts reflect the total field returned by each API, not just the sample displayed.

Historical data: Platform-wide aggregates (total rooms, total viewers, category breakdowns) are captured every 10 minutes for trend analysis. This enables peak-hour analysis and platform share tracking over time.
