ProxyStats

ProxyStats is an independent benchmark of residential proxy networks. Automated probes run every 15 minutes from the EU, the US and Singapore, and the public dashboard shows success rate, latency, session survival and IP pool quality for each tracked provider.

The service measures 19 residential proxy providers and runs more than 1.5 million tests a month. Rankings are computed from probe data alone: no provider can pay for a position, a score or the wording of a result.

Key Solutions and Advantages of ProxyStats

ProxyStats combines a free public layer for proxy buyers with paid monitoring for proxy providers.

Live Dashboard

A public leaderboard of residential proxy providers with a composite score from 0 to 100. The score covers the last seven full days and is recomputed daily.

• latency per region (EU, US, SG) and download speed;
• share of clean IPs in the pool;
• price per GB next to the measured results;
• latency trends, success rate, score history and score breakdown views.

Use-Case Rankings

Separate rankings for six common workloads, each weighted on the network measurements that matter for it.

• Google SERP analysis;
• Amazon and e-commerce;
• social media and B2B platforms;
• travel and flight price aggregation;
• real estate data collection;
• general web crawling.

Open Benchmark Dataset

A daily rebuilt CSV file with one row per network per day for the last 90 days: composite score, success rate, median latency, session survival and probe count. The dataset is free under the CC BY 4.0 license.

Public Methodology

The scoring formula, its weights and every change to it are published with a dated changelog. A separate Accuracy and Disputes page explains how providers can challenge a figure and how corrections are marked.

ProxyStats Pro for Providers

A paid product for proxy providers with deeper data about their own network: long sticky session tests, pool source analysis and alerts when monitoring detects degradation. Pro data never changes the public score.

Provider Badges

Every benchmarked provider can embed an "Independently Benchmarked" badge that links to its public results page.

Platform Features

Tests run from ProxyStats' own infrastructure in several regions on retail accounts, the same products customers buy. Headline latency is measured to the nearest Cloudflare edge, so it reflects the proxy's own network quality. Referral links on provider pages are marked and carry rel="sponsored", and they have no path into the scoring pipeline. Readers do not pay for access to the dashboard, rankings or dataset.

Who ProxyStats Is For

ProxyStats is useful for anyone choosing or checking a residential proxy provider on measured data rather than marketing claims.

The service is suitable for:

• web scraping developers comparing latency, success rate and session survival;
• SEO specialists choosing a network for SERP monitoring;
• e-commerce and price monitoring teams;
• data and analytics teams building collection infrastructure;
• multi-account and affiliate teams that need stable sticky sessions;
• proxy providers tracking how their network looks from the buyer's side.

Use Cases

ProxyStats data helps at every stage of working with residential proxies.

Typical use cases include:

• provider selection - comparing networks by score, price per GB and regional latency before buying;
• workload matching - picking a provider from the ranking for a specific task such as SERP or e-commerce;
• session planning - checking session survival before running long sticky sessions;
• ongoing monitoring - watching score history to spot a provider's degradation;
• research and reporting - citing the open CSV dataset with attribution to ProxyStats.

Benefits for Afina Users

In Afina Browser, each profile works with its own fingerprint, cookies and proxy. The quality of that proxy decides whether a profile keeps a stable IP and loads pages without errors.

ProxyStats can help choose a residential provider before connecting it to Afina profiles. Session survival data is useful for profiles that need the same exit IP over a long login session, and regional latency helps pick a network that is fast in the profile's target region. Score history can show whether a provider already used in Afina has started to degrade.
