Lichess Max Concurrent Users

Which is the record for concurrent users on Lichess? Are we getting more and more players everyday? Share some stats please.
It seems to be rising all day every day. In my experience it seems to peak around big chess events, either during or just after.
Well there was just over 42k online about an hour ago. Donno if thats the highest recorded.
You could try sending an email to contact@lichess.org requesting an interview.
I sometimes look at the number of "Blitz players this week" (COMMUNITY -> Players -> Rating stats), which reflects the active users in this variant, to get an impression of lichess player evolvement.
This number is constantly rising since I discovered it - hoping the logic behind counting the players does not change. ;-)
Here is some stats:

___4,696 UltraBullet players this week.
147,232 Bullet players this week.
293,466 Blitz players this week. ________ (Noticed the numbers)
131,979 Rapid players this week.
__67,162 Classical players this week.
___4,352 Crazyhouse players this week.

At the moment there are 35,434 players on-line and 16,500 games in play.
That's a large chess site.
