this happens when there is a problem with the API server

Mine was solved

Once in a while the server may have a problem computing the data

Quite possibly for the same reason that you can't obtain a listing of all players for the US - because the list is too long? Do you have any idea how many members identify as Indian?

It works now for me, so probably it was just a temporary problem.

It looks that way but for what it's worth the total count of members in the country list for India is 265371.

I wonder at what point the site stops caching members by country?

300k profiles returned for indian players query. Im sure US will be around the same, I think this is some bug that should be fixed.

Hi Can you share the list with me? It is important for the study I'm conducting. This would be a solid help. my email: sachinsksm99@gmail.com
Appreciate the help!

let me know if u get the error when u query again. Thanks!

I think the query should at least return the maximum amount of players that it can.
