Every number's count since July 9, 2025 →

The lottery publishes about a year of past draws, so this table starts at July 9, 2025 rather than at the last rule change. We store every new draw as it happens, so it deepens by one line a day.

The statistics behind that

Expected count 19.4, standard deviation 4.2. The leader sits at 1.81 standard deviations against an expected maximum of 2.26 for 52 numbers; a lead at least this large arises by chance about 72% of the time. Goodness of fit to a uniform draw: chi-square 41.4 on 51 degrees of freedom, p = 0.829. How we calculate it.

Frequently asked questions

Do hot and cold numbers predict anything?

No. The gap between the most and least drawn number here is 17 appearances, which is about what 202 draws produce on their own. The table is worth looking at; it is not worth betting on.

Why do your frequencies differ from other sites?

Two reasons, both on our sources page. We only count draws since the game last changed its set of balls, because counting across a change mixes two different games. And we check 2 official sources against each other, and settle any draw on which they disagree.

What does the shaded band on the chart mean?

It marks the normal range — where 19 out of 20 numbers land when every one is equally likely. With 52 numbers on the chart, two or three sticking out above or below it is the usual picture rather than a sign of anything.

How far back does this Lotto America data go?

Our full history runs back to July 9, 2025 — 202 draws. The frequency table on this page uses the 202 draws since July 9, 2025, the first the lottery still publishes. Browse every draw by year.
