.stats

The proposed .stats top-level domain represents statistics - the scores, standings, metrics, survey results, and reference figures that people publish and consult every day. Stats are a standing feature of websites across sports, business, research, entertainment, and public information. Intercap Registry proposes to operate .stats as an open namespace, available for registration by the general public without restriction. Intended registrants include individuals, creators, businesses, and organizations of all kinds that compile, publish, or analyze figures or reports. Intended users are members of the general public seeking numbers and the context behind them. Intercap Registry will make .stats names available worldwide through ICANN-accredited registrars, promote awareness and adoption of the namespace, publish its registration policies ahead of launch, operate the TLD openly, respond promptly to reports of abuse, and comply with applicable safeguards. Demand for this category is sustainable: publishing and consulting statistics is a long-standing, cross-sector activity - from league standings to usage figures - and is not tied to any trend, technology, or single company.
