    1920 * As [XmlStats a set of downloadable files] (in a compressed XML format) that contain the project's complete current statistics. These files are typically updated once every 24 hours.
     
    2223Applications should access these data sources as infrequently as possible, to avoid imposing unnecessary load on project servers. For example, a Web RPCs to get a particular participant's data should made at most once per hour.

    2525== Aggregate data ==
    26  A '''data aggregator''' is a service that collects XML files from several projects, and computes the totals for participants and hosts (based on [CrossProjectId cross-project IDs]) across these projects. This aggregate data is then exported in two ways:

    30  * As [http://boinc.berkeley.edu/stats_xml.php#rpc a set of Web RPCs] that return an XML-format description of a given participant or host's credit, based on the cross-project ID. Example: http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/get_host.php?cpid=???? and http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/get_host_tot.php?cpid=????

    3431Application developers are encouraged to concentrate on aggregate rather than per-project data. This will encourage participants to join multiple projects, and will make it possible for new projects to quickly get many participants.
