Modeling a question about ARC Raiders concurrent players

A question about the current player count illustrates a data freshness problem: an answer can become outdated even when it was accurate when written.

A practical data model attaches an observed-at time, source, metric definition, and platform scope to each value. If a reader requests “current,” display the latest available observation and its age rather than implying the number is live.
