How we track Internet Movie Database (IMDb)
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Internet Movie Database (IMDb), counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Internet Movie Database (IMDb), so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
