Mac OSX Chess, Survive and My Approximate Elo?

Hi all :-D
I am curious about an approximate Elo rating, as I am not an experienced player. I have played lots of games against the Apple Mac Chess program. Through searches, I have found that it has an approx. Elo of 2500 at the hardest difficulty, which I cannot yet defeat; however I am able to "survive" to up to 30 moves. Could this be a clue to a rough estimate of my Elo? Thanks! This I am just curious about.

Engines are not a good estimate. I recommend elometer.net

@NoobBatter I heard Elometer.net overestimates lower rated players, and underestimates higher rated players.

If you want to compare yourself to others on the site, you might as well play some rated games on Lichess.

As for OTB, the best way to find out your rating is by playing OTB tournaments.
