estimated rating of stockfish level 6

I won a game against stockfish level 6 and it was relatively easy. What is the rating of this level?
You can see the rating when you look into your played games. Stockfish 6 is rated at 1900. Well done!
Oh, it's true, I draw stockfish level 7 and its rating was 2200! Stockfish level 6 is 1900. Thanks for advice!
The stockfish ratings are highly overrated, I would consider stockfish level 6 to be around 1200-1400.
Stockfish should have a floating rating like everyone else here. I get the computer cpu strength variability but still think that
It used to have floating rating, but it was removed as people were confused when lower level one had higher rating than higher level one. (mentioned here: lichess.org/forum/general-chess-discussion/where-changes-done-to-stockfish--level-5-in-the-last-year-it-seems-strange-i-can-win-now#3)

Anyway, @OP. This topic comes up every so often (my last thoughts here: lichess.org/forum/game-analysis/what-level-of-stockfish-can-you-beat-please-reply?page=4#31 . I don't have sufficient experience vs 6 myself to make accurate estimate, but I'd say I'm ≃ 4 and 5 is 200 stronger, with 6 significantly stronger than that.

Weakened AI opponents are bit weird, sometimes they just give pawn or even a piece right out, and sometimes an 1 checkmates me. With them it's something of a game of waiting for them to make a mistake, while with humans you might note tendency to favour particular opening, knights over bishops, or consistent tendency for overextension.

@gp469: Surely not that low, given you have 18 losses to 0 victories with SF lv6?
