More posters than we think?

I've seen several posts where folks reckon there are only a few 10s of active posters, 30-60 maybe. So out of curiosity I scraped the recent posts pages, formatted it into a spread sheet and counted the individual names. I meant to do 24 hours worth but around 16 hours back I started getting an error so stopped. I think I lost a few names along the way as I tried to format it as well.
However, over 16 hours I had 260+ individual names.
Only 21 came from the politics boards and some of those posters also appeared in the film boards. Though there are also posts against politicians in the film boards.
And I've just realised that I'm not in that list either - guess I didn't have anything to say after watching Jumanji: The Next Level yesterday evening.

That's a higher number than I thought. This community feels so small compared to the original IMDB boards.

I was 10200 when I first started posting here and then my laptop had to be repaired and when it came back, it was clean. I thought I had remembered my passcode, but nothing worked so I just started a new account and made it 102000.

I did backup the important stuff, but not everything.
