Questions about the measurement

When are the most cams online?
Around 21:00 UTC. On average 12,982 rooms are on air at that hour, against 10,342 at the quietest hour around 11:00 UTC. Based on 47,319 samples across 50 days. As of 15 October 2026 at 15:34 UTC.
Why UTC and not local time?
Because the roster is worldwide. A single local clock would be wrong for most of it, and shifting the curve per visitor would make the numbers uncomparable. Every country page carries its own peak hour, which is the number that actually helps.
Which weekday is busiest?
Friday, with a mean of 12611 rooms on air.
How is this measured?
Every few minutes the public affiliate feeds of Chaturbate, Stripchat and BongaCams are queried and the rooms on air are counted. Samples are folded into hourly buckets; the figure shown is an hourly mean, not a peak. Nothing is estimated and nothing is modelled.
How much of the roster is worth indexing?
194,276 of 309,508 profiles ever recorded have enough measured history for a page of their own — at least 2 hours observed on air across 2 separate days. The rest stays out of the index rather than pad it.
