I realize that, but I find it a worthless stat because the numbers are more easily massaged, which is of course partly the point. A different measurement, which paints a less flattering picture, is concurrent players on Steam. I realize that the game will pull players from other places, but comparing it to other games in the same situation doesn’t render favorable results; something which Ubisoft would prefer you didn’t know, as is evident by their asking Valve to obfuscate these statistics in the past.
