Any update on this? Where is the "node count" number coming from?

Apologies for the lack of response here. We are hoping to resume maintenance shortly and be more active on this project.

Beacon nodes can handle 1000s of validators. Most larger scale operations are probably running 100-1000 per beacon node.

Node count is the number of beacon nodes on the network.
