How these numbers were computed

From our open Toolroll MCP Registry snapshot (35,403 rows, data date 2026-09-24), one row per server from the official MCP Registry API with its latest version. Active = status "active" (deprecated servers excluded). Remote = the server lists at least one remote URL; package = it lists at least one installable package. A server can list several registries or transports, so those rows can add up to more than the server count. Domain namespace = the server name is not under the account-based io.github.* namespace.
