Can I see how much my torrent is downloaded from all seeds worldwide?

Post by hess8 »

This is a question about torrents generally. My torrents are announced by opentrackr.org. Is there a way to know how many downloads my files have worldwide, from anyone seeding the torrents?

Only torrent trackers will know and can save this info (and even then it can be incomplete if DHT, other trackers etc. were contacted instead). A leecher may not connect to a given seeder at all, especially if the torrent is popular and the seeder was not active the whole time.

Certain websites that use their own trackers will display the count of completed downloads.

Edit: I noticed that you can see this number in the Trackers tab, as 'Times downloaded'.
Trackers you can just add to any torrent and that don't keep listings of torrent files, like the tracker you mentioned, will just display N/A there though.
