Weekly earned merits (median) of top 100 merited users

The top 100 merited users in the analysis snapshotted at the 2019w36, according to the data update in [CLUBS] Top Merited-Users Classified into 4 Clubs, with weekly support to update from @LoyceV.

From that week, I traced back 13 weeks (from 2019w36 to 2019w23) to collect total earned merits and calculate earned merits between each two weeks.

Results for median of weekly earned merits

The top 100: 8 merits per week, with interquartile range is 3 to 18. It means if someone can manage to earn more than 7 merits per week, over months, they might move to the top months later.
The top 1-25: 13 merits per week, that is 30-percent higher than the the second group (top 26-50) at 9. The rest two groups (top 51-75, and top 76-100) have same median at 7. (see details below)
In median, top 26-100 merited users earn around 1 merit per day

Note:
- Figures here do not reflect exactly statistics on weekly earned merits of top 100 merited users, because I only traced back 13 recent weeks.
- I will expand the list to top 100, over all observed weeks in above thread, if forum users have interest with this thread. (Done)
- Weekly statistics are not exactly for each week in Calendar day (due to theymos data dump). See explanation here.
Ex: 2019w36 includes 5 days in 2019w36 and 2 days in 2019w37.
- I might trace back to more past weeks (around 3 months) when I have spare time
