That's Numberwang!

I found three new numbers!

Do we get digital stickers for the numbers we found? ;)

Some of the most searched numbers are surprising. Why are 8487798767697884826576, 119104105114108, or even 3551 so high up the list?

How high can the numbers go?

67 has been searched 13k+ times, more than 69 and 420 combined

Oddly, “7070” seems to always return a Database Error for me. Other numbers work fine.

It seems that someone sequentially ran up to around 131k (at the moment), I can't get any lower new number. Also please restore the input when a database error occurs...

I'm not sure whether I'm taking too seriously something intended as a joke, but this in fact can conceivably be useful! When studying mathematical problems, sometimes you have a number that has some special meaning in your problem (e.g., the first value for which some phenomenon does not occur), you may be able to find this number by brute-force or by a special argument, and if the number is high enough then someone else finding this number may mean that they are looking at the same problem as you.

An example of a similar phenomenon here https://a3nm.net/work/research/questions/#words-without-shuf... where someone interested in the sequence "abcacbacabc" is plausibly looking at the longest and lexicographically smallest ternary word without a shuffle square substring. Just searching for these on Google yields papers who look at this -- and two people independently coming up with the concept could find each other in this way if they write examples the same way even if they don't use the same words to define the concept.

(A related resource in maths is the OEIS https://oeis.org/ to see whether the integer sequence you came up with has already been studied or has another non-obvious reformulation.)
