active post/comment apps in the past hour

My vote-bot began to pick random new posts 2 days ago. It's interesting to see many " appics " in upvoted titles. I am curious about how many apps/clients are active today.

36 active apps produced 294 posts and 271 comments in the past hour. Steemit, dlike, appics, steempeak, wherein are the top 5 in post creation. Steemit, appics, steempeak, steemcn and comments-scot are the top 3 in comment creation.

It will take hours to get the past 24-hour stats without optimization. You may have a try by changing last_block_number-20*60 to last_block_number-20*60*24
