How it is counted

Sites that check visitors with Visitor Resolve report each agent request; a request counts once its agent is verified (address inside the operator’s published ranges, or a valid signature from its own origin). When an agent sends the CrawlCheck-Receipt header, the site checks it and the check is counted, accepted or not. Nothing about the visitor is kept: no addresses, no user agents; site hosts are counted, not published. This lossless count began on 7 October 2026 at 10:33 AM MDT; the daily tallies kept before then are at /api/v1/decisions and /api/v1/visitor/stats.

Check it yourself
