I think it’s more common to crack the passwords offline from a breach. Enough people reuse passwords that you can then directly try a persons password on multiple sites, without the need to guess.
I think I’ve had this happen to a few old accounts of mine that reused a simple password that had been leaked. (Of course I can’t really verify how the hackers did it, but it seems likely to me)
