FlightAware ADS-B Flight Tracking

Hi All,

This is probably going to be a silly question, I couldn’t find if it’s been asked before.
What is the flights count under the ‘Nearby Sites’ on Flight Aware stats?
I have tried to figure it out, but then when it changes my logic goes out the window.
Sometimes it matches an all day count for 5 days ago, sometimes not. I thought it could the max in 30 days but it’s never reflected my max. Could it be average?

Thanks

of course, as soon as I ask it comes up with suggested topics and I find what I am looking for!
I can see Flight Aware have responded else where, It’s the 7 day median.
Maybe it could be added as a tool tip when you hover over, like in other areas.

For what it’s worth, they use the same method for the positions count - 7 day median. But it may be a different day, not necessarily the same day as your flights count day. Each is treated separately.

Thanks, definitely worth knowing and keeping in mind
