Question 1

How far back do your archives go?

Accepted Answer

UK 49s archives go back to 2018. South African National Lottery (Sizekhaya) archives go back to when each game launched — SA Lotto from 2015, PowerBall from 2009, Daily Lotto from 2019. We're continuously backfilling historical data.

Question 2

Can I download historical results?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The full dataset is available as JSON at /data/draws.json and updates with each data refresh. You can also view individual draw pages and copy results manually.

Question 3

Why are some dates missing from the archive?

Accepted Answer

Draws only run on specific days (e.g., SA Lotto on Wednesdays and Saturdays). Dates without draws won't have results. For UK 49s, draws run daily but occasional technical issues may cause gaps.

Question 4

Are archived results verified?

Accepted Answer

Recent draws (last 90 days) are cross-verified across multiple sources. Older historical data comes from primary sources and official publications. For prize claims, always check the official operator or Sizekhaya.
