How is the rank column calculated?

Rank uses the average player count over the last seven days, sampled hour by hour from Steam's public server list. A server that stays busy across the week outranks one that only fills for a single evening after a wipe, so the rank order will not always match the players-now order. Servers that have been offline for most of the week fall down the table or drop out of it.

How current are the player counts and other fields?

The whole table is rebuilt every five minutes from Steam's public Rust server list. Player counts are the number connected when the server was last queried, not a daily average. Fields such as map seed, entity count and FPS are read directly from servers that respond to queries; servers that block queries show no values for those fields.

What do the wipe columns mean?

Wipe cycle is the schedule the server advertises, such as weekly or monthly, and it can change without the table updating instantly. Last wipe is the most recent date the server's world reset, taken from the server's own report. A server that resets its world every few hours rather than on a fixed cycle, common on aim-train, arena and build servers, shows a reset interval instead of a wipe date.

Can I find servers that have just wiped?

Yes. Set the last-wipe filter to the last 24 hours, or open the just wiped Rust servers list, which is built from the same data. The wipe schedule for the week ahead, including the forced wipe, is on the wipe schedule calendar .
