MineTracker is an independent Minecraft server tracker that continuously measures player counts, uptime, and history of hundreds of servers and displays the data transparently.

How often are player counts updated?

All tracked servers are polled multiple times per hour via server list ping, so the numbers stay close to real-time.

How does MineTracker detect fake player counts?

A trust score analyses variance, sample data, meme numbers, and IP aliases to flag implausible figures.

Can I submit my own server?

Yes, via the submission form on the homepage. The address is validated via DNS and added after a short moderation step.

What MineTracker does

An independent tracker for real Minecraft activity

MineTracker measures Minecraft servers the way the big vote lists never did: not by banners, not by paid placement, but by observed player activity over time. Every tracked server is polled several times per hour via the public status-ping protocol. Those answers become the charts, heatmaps and uptime numbers on each detail page — and the distribution of those numbers feeds the trust score that flags clearly inflated player counts instead of quietly counting them.

The site is run as a side project by one person in Germany. There is no paid ranking and no "featured" slot — the top server is the server with the most measured players, and the 200th is the 200th. If you want to know who is behind it, how the data is produced and why certain design choices were made, the about page covers all of it.

How It Works

Historical tracking, not one-off status checks

MineTracker stores repeated samples over time, which makes it possible to show peaks, averages and broader population trends instead of one isolated number.

What You Can See

Readable charts, cleaner decisions

Use the leaderboard to find the biggest servers, then open detailed pages for historical charts, tracking start dates and comparison-ready data.

Data quality

Trust score and alias detection

MineTracker flags suspicious player counts, large flatlines and server addresses that probably represent the same population. This keeps rankings and totals easier to read.

Context

More than one live ping

A single status check only shows one moment. The charts show whether a server is steadily growing, briefly peaking or often offline.
