A histogram can be found here:

Unofficial OGS rank histogram (and graphs) 2022

A year has passed since the last time. I don’t have time to test these, let’s hope everything is ok. Traditional six-month player distribution by rank: [Histogram 2022] Percentiles at the bottom are based on green part as all weaker players + half of given rank.

Accurate percentiles (change since the last time)

0: 59.0k (+9.4) 1: 29.0k (+0.6) 2: 25.8k (+1.1) 3: 24.0k (+1.1) 4: 22.5k (+1.5) 5: 21.4k (+1.5) 6: 20.5k (+1.6) 7: 19.8k (+1.5) 8: 19.2k (+1.5) 9: 18.6k (+1.4) 10: …

I think ~2k+ is adequate for “advanced”.
