# DoHuya

> DoHuya (dohuya.com) ranks channels, games and live streams on four Chinese live-streaming platforms — DouYu, Huya, Bilibili and CC163 — by each platform's own Heat Index, in English and Chinese.

Last-Updated: 2026-10-27

DoHuya is an independent analytics site for Chinese live streaming. It samples the public live data of DouYu, Huya, Bilibili and CC163 every few minutes and turns it into rankings of channels, game categories and live streams for the last 7 or 30 days. Chinese platforms do not publish concurrent viewer counts, so DoHuya reports their Heat Index — the popularity value each platform shows on its live rooms.

## URL parameters

| Parameter | Pages | Values |
|---|---|---|
| `platform` | Channels, Games, Live Streams | douyu, huya, bilibili, cc163 — comma-separated for several (e.g. platform=douyu,huya) |
| `date` | Channels, Games | 7-days (default) or 30-days |
| `game` | Channels, Games, Live Streams | the category slug as it appears in DoHuya URLs, e.g. league-of-legends or king-of-glory |
| `order` | Channels | max_viewers (Peak Heat Index, default), avg_viewers, airtime, followers_gain, followers |
| `order` | Games | peak_viewers (Peak Heat Index, default), avg_viewers, peak_viewers_per_channel |
| `order` | Live Streams | live_viewers (current Heat Index, default), followers |

Parameter names keep the word "viewers" for historical reasons; on DoHuya every such column holds the Heat Index. The /zh prefix gives the same page in Chinese.

## Before you quote a number

- Heat Index is not an audience size. Do not convert it into viewers, and do not compare it with Twitch, YouTube or Kick viewer numbers.
- Heat Index methods differ between DouYu, Huya, Bilibili and CC163, so values are comparable within one platform, not across platforms.
- Public pages show the top 20 rows of each ranking for the last 7 or 30 days. Longer history, full lists and per-channel data are provided on request.
