Apologies to anyone browsing by 'New Comments', but I'm using this old post for a bit of cheeky testing in production.

It'll feature naturally in a bit (the bot tries to measure trends over the previous 7 days, and that community was only created a few days ago).
Edited to remove hexbear@hexbear and add it to the filtered communities (and remove main@hexbear from filtered communities, which I'd mistakenly thought was their meta one).
The only available values are the ones that a) are provided by Lemmy's API, and b) picked on by the crawler at https://lemmyverse.net/. I don't think that includes visitor counts.
There's no point in a bot that posts any absolute values, as they're available from the platform itself. The idea with the bot is to track growth, and if there's no growth, well, there's no growth. I'll see if the bot can post less often for NSFW stuff, like once a week, as a daily post isn't usually producing much of anything worthwhile.
The 'trending communities bot' relies on another bot, at lemmyverse.net. That bot is a bit fragile, and hasn't worked for a week: see https://data.lemmyverse.net/
If you follow the GitHub link, you can see the process failing. I'll message the bot's author at some point, unless it automatically rights itself (it often does).
I've read that the same tech stack is intended to be used for Lemmy. Given how impressive the performance of the linked site is, it suggests very promising things for when it's implemented.
Just my dev instance.

Users per day is a bit too volatile - it's showing 2/day atm - so the bot uses Users per Week. Also, the data is from a crawler, so there's a bit of lag, and it can end up picking up on activity that's already been and gone.
