strange, then there are not so many users on edonkey servers if only DonkeyServer[1-6], ChezToff[1-2], Byte Devils and few others are the only trusted servers of the network
if only the value reported from kad users stat was correct we could determine with good approximation the current network population of the centralized network
assuming that only amule users (almost all) and emule users (only those running a emule version > 0.42) can connect to kademlia network and assuming that the first are about 1% of the network and the second about 90% x 0,95 (0,05 still are running emule0.30 or some old mods)= 85,5% , the edonkey population would be:
number of kademlia users/0,865
however BigBang servers are present in the filtered server list from
http://www.gruk.org/list.php that is used as boot list from many clients, moreover they do not have as high connected clients number as many fake servers report just to put them on top of the list, and their fluctuations of connected users during night and day seem regular as those reported from other trusted servers
