@lindark King collects all kinds of player data, and I am fairly sure they know how many attempts are being made on a level. The number of attempts doesn't necessarily equal the number of players though as one player can make several attempts.
I can't be sure, but I doubt King can see individual player ID to know how many people are playing a particular level
