I’d love to be able to subscribe to map stats to find a server for exotic custom maps; is that possible?

Having the number scanned was very useful to me as I am a collector of rare items. Now there's no way for me to get a rough estimate of how many there are of each item. Please bring it back.

TF2stats cannot and will never give accurate totals of items. The most obvious reason is due to private backpacks, which cannot be scanned. The percentages should be more or less accurate; though very rare items may not be represented fairly due to being items of interest (For example, if exactly 5 golden wrenches exists, and all 5 have been checked on the site since they're interesting profiles, then the percentage would technically be inflated due to us having 100% of golden wrenches but not 100% of total profiles. Granted it's moot since it's still going to be <0.01%. So technically the percentages for the headcase are too high (probably) but the deviation is going to be so small it doesn't matter in the resolution I show on the site. tl;dr use the percentages, they're pretty much right; and the totals are from the sameple not the entire tf2 community.

Based on your data gathering methods, above, wouldn't this be inaccurate and only the percentage of owners be close to accurate? It does say 162334 profiles scanned, which seems like a large amount. Thanks for any insight you can give! Hey, question about the total count of hats:
