How these estimates are made

The Sims Online

Not enough data collected to estimate this game yet.

VRChat

VRChat is estimated to have 120k – 440k players a day. Around 3m – 8m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
