Hey @WhatamIdoing, the inconsistent numbers seem to be caused by some API rate limiting. I've added two changes that should help:

• I limited concurrent API requests to 3, which aligns with Wikimedia API rate limit guidance.
• I've added a 1-hour caching mechanism, and the possibility to force refresh the data if needed.

{F97000879}

Both mean the first visit will take a bit more time than usual to pull the data, but subsequent visits should be faster, and cause less strain on the APIs.

Kindly let me know if the cache needs a different time window than 1 hour, or if you come across some issues. Otherwise, feel free to resolve the issue.

Thank you, @samuelguebo. It's a bit slower (less than a minute) but it gets the right answer. I don't need it to be very quick.

Also, thank you for making this tool. I have used it multiple times and always appreciate it.
