Raw = active listings returned for the query. Effective = raw times the share judged relevant, the competition figure the verdict uses. Previous measurement = effective listings at least 28 days earlier, from Kupkaike's nightly measurements when the niche is tracked, otherwise from an earlier scan with the same method.
What this cannot tell you
These figures come from one endpoint, Etsy's active listings. They contain no sales, no revenue and no other marketplace. The full arithmetic is on the methodology page.
