Granted, due to OpenRouter's 5.5% surcharge, any enormous whales have a strong financial incentive to use the provider's API directly.
A "weekly active API Keys" faceted by models/app would be a useful data point to measure real-world popularity though.

- minimaxir 1y agoAggregating by tokens causes the problem simonw mentions in that one poweruser can skew the chart too much.
- simonw 1y agoRight, that chart shows App usage based on the user-agent header but doesn't tell you if there is a single individual user of an app that skews the results.
