Curious how the "NextTrace has been used for [number] times" banner works. Does it fire off a request to their site everytime it's used? (and if so, is it an over reaction to personally find that a little strange for a small-ish cli tool?)

I understand your concern and have consulted with the author.

When using the Nextrace API for IP geolocation, Nextrace performs Proof-of-Work (PoW) authentication first. Therefore, the website counts only these authentication requests.

Consequently, the statistics do not include requests using other IP APIs.
