Classification costs a model call per plugin, so it advances in batches - 11,364 plugins have been through it so far. This one has not. The taxonomy as it stands.
Standing
More installed than 60.3% of the directory
Ahead of 28,802 of the 47,735 plugins that report an install count at all. An install figure on its own says nothing; this is what it is worth.
The directory rounds install counts hard and publishes them as bands, so two plugins showing the same number are not necessarily level. The percentile is computed over the plugins that report a count at all, which excludes the quarter of the directory sitting on the reporting floor.

One plugin is one row
The interesting part is the shape of the whole directory behind it.
This page is not offered to search engines. It repeats what wordpress.org already publishes, and a plugin page here earns a place in the index once it carries something the directory page does not.
