Comment:

 I've cc'd dcf and arlolra to see if they have thoughts on this.

 I just thought of another thing that makes snowflake quite different from
 relays or bridges is the expected amount of time that each proxy will be
 online. It might make more sense to shorten the collection period from 24
 hours in this case. Another thing we can do is have the broker export
 another metric that includes something like the average amount of time a
 unique proxy was available.

 Also noting that mapping unique proxies to IP addresses isn't quite how
 snowflake is supposed to work: we'll probably want some kind of persistent
 identifier later as mentioned in the comments above, but I think it will
 work fine for our purposes now.
