How Wabiro aggregate data is produced

Wabiro publishes aggregate figures — score distributions and how often each result appears — only from anonymous counters, and only once a test version has at least 200 completions. Nothing is estimated, and no figure can be traced back to a person.

What is counted

When someone finishes a test, the server adds one to a counter for that test version and score, and one to a counter for their main result profile. That is all. There is no row per person, no identifier, no IP address, and never an answer. Chats analysed in Group Chat Court or Situationship Autopsy never reach the server, so they are never part of any dataset.

What is never collected

Wabiro does not ask for age, gender, city or orientation, so it never publishes figures segmented by them. Individual answers, uploaded chats and free text are never aggregated.

Publication thresholds

  • A test version needs 200 completions before any figure about it is shown — including the "higher than X% of people" line on results.
  • A segment (a language, a country or a month) needs 500 completions on its own before it is shown; smaller segments are left out, not estimated.
  • A category with fewer than 10 completions is folded into "other".
  • Shares are whole percentages; means and medians have one decimal.
  • The shortest period a figure covers is one calendar month.

Versions

Counters belong to one test version. When a scoring rule changes, the version changes and counting starts again, so a published distribution never mixes two methods. Each test's method page shows its version.

What the numbers mean

Wabiro tests are entertainment and self-reflection tools, and the people who take them are not a representative sample of any population. A distribution describes people who took that test on Wabiro — not people in general, and not a country. Figures show association, never cause.
