By default, challenges are sent out as rated, so the vast majority of seeks are rated.
most are bots operated by the site itself to give the appearance of activity.
randomized name, flag, rating and bot vs. bot game archive. youll play them once then never again.
they also use this to promote “streaks”. youll have a 5 game losing streak so theyll dial down the bots and give you a 10 game winning streak, then suddenly youll be playing bots 200 rating lower than you but playing at a strength 500 above you. when youre in that losing track, just auto resign 6 in a row and youll be put back in the neutral track against “fair” bots for awhile.
they do this to increase player retention thru “scheduled winning streak” rewards

If that is true, then kudos to the Chess.com programmers for coming up with such an elaborate illusion.

I played a few unrated 1 min bullet games a few days ago. I got a game in a few seconds.

Almost 20 years ago we had chess sites with 5 figures (at least 10 thousand) players on at the same time.
With improved technology, and availability, it's not hard to imagine stats like this (picture below) are true.
