AniDB provides information on the user count for every file. The numbers provide information about the popularity/availability of each specific file. There are two forms of these statistics; one is shown on anime and episode pages, and the other on file pages.

{{eyecatch|Note|This info is generated by the [[Filestates]] per file set in everyone's [[MyList]]. These values are '''not''' generated automatically!}}

=Format explanation=

==Anime/episode page format==

The format is: total users/[[Filestates:deleted|deleted]]/[[Filestates:unknown|unknown]]

{{needspic}}

'''''Example:''''' <tt>1018/80/107</tt>

This means:
:1018 users have this file in their [[MyList]]. Out of those:
::80 have [[Filestates:deleted|deleted]] the file;
::107 have it on [[Filestates:unknown|unknown]] state; and
::1018 - (80 + 107) = 831 have it on either [[Filestates:hdd|internal]] or [[Filestates:cd|external]] storage.

Individual counts for internal or external storage are not shown.

==File page format==

This format is a fair bit more verbose, and consequentially self-explanatory, but we'll use the same example to illustrate it anyway.

{{needspic}}

'''''Example:''''' <tt>736 [[Filestates:hdd|internal]], 95 [[Filestates:cd|external]], 80 [[Filestates:deleted|deleted]], 107 [[Filestates:unknown|unknown]], 1018 in total.</tt>

This means:
:1018 users have this file in their [[MyList]]. Out of those:
::736 have it on [[Filestates:hdd|internal]] storage;
::95 have in on [[Filestates:cd|external]] storage;
::80 have [[Filestates:deleted|deleted]] the file; and
::107 have it on [[Filestates:unknown|unknown]] state.

As one may easily note, this format is not only more readable but also more information-complete.
