Fargo average and median values?

Mike had a video and/or graph on it a couple years back. From distant memory, I think the median was about 480 for all established players (200 robustness), and it shifted higher to maybe 520 for a higher robustness (I think maybe 500). This is from memory so may be way off:)
 
According to their website, 500 is ”close to the median”.

That table has been out of date for years but for some reason stays on the home page with inaccurate information. There are now more than 70 players with ratings above 800.

Thread 'What fraction of players rated over 700?'

In another thread some are discussing what fraction of players
--might have once, or
--are capable of, or
--regularly

run 100 balls in straight pool

and the discussion brings home the difficulty of deciding who is a "player." Is it someone who has picked up a pool cue once in the last 6 months? Someone with an established Fargo Rating? The answer will depend tremendously on this choice.

Here are a few stats from the FargoRate database that illustrate the problem. The bolded part refers to players with an established rating, though outside the somewhat arbitrary choice of 200...

Here are some stats from 2019. Back then, the average rating for players with 50 or more games was 463.
