| 摘要 | Systems and methods of determining viewership information are provided. A method of determining viewership information includes determining viewership information from multicast routing table data associated with one or more edge routers of a media content delivery service. Each edge router of the one or more edge routers is adapted to transmit media content streams to multiple devices via a first network. The method also includes sending data related to the viewership information to a requesting device via a second network. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method of determining viewership information, the method comprising: retrieving multicast routing table data via a first network by retrieving a corresponding portion of the multicast routing table data stored at each of a plurality of edge routers, wherein each retrieved portion includes a corresponding plurality of entries associated with media content distributed by a corresponding edge router of the plurality of edge routers; determining viewership information based on the multicast routing table data retrieved from the plurality of edge routers; and sending the viewership information to a requesting device via a second network. | ||
