Twitch Live Viewership Screensaver
The Twitch Live Viewership screensaver ranks real live streams by real concurrent viewer count. It is free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
How the Twitch Live Viewership screensaver works
The saver reads real live stream data from Twitch's own Helix API.
Each entry shows a real game, stream title, broadcaster and real viewer count.
The pipeline refreshes the board on its own schedule.
A free Twitch developer app (client ID and secret) is required for this endpoint.
A worked example
A real stream with tens of thousands of real concurrent viewers sits at the top of the board, exactly matching Twitch's own count.
Settings & tips
