[metrics-team] onionoo: missing AS data threshold

[nusenu]

Since my comparison took place relatively shortly after Maxmind data got released,
it was expected that over time the number of relays with missing AS data will increase.

Since a new organization (with a relatively new AS) added a few relays we are now at >10 relays without AS
data again and this number will rise over time until the next Maxmind db is released and deployed.

I have a (relatively low) threshold for what amount of AS-less relays is
acceptable for my use-cases. I'm wondering if others do have a threshold as well?

reducing the number of AS-less relays could happen
- at onionoo level (for onionoo clients):
there have been onionoo tickets about this in the past (#19437,#19420),
so I'm not suggesting that ;)

- at RS level:
if onionoo does not provide any data for the AS number/name fields
RS could link "unknown" to RIPE using the primary OR IP as parameter
(or even make the browser call that API? I don't know if their API terms allows that though)

https://stat.ripe.net/data/prefix-overview/data.json?resource=primary-ip-goes-here


This is just an idea for you if you like it someone can create a ticket for it.
