Engagement
A typical post picks up 80 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 27% of 3,829 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 28K times each, and 0.289% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.902% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.53 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 25% carry an image or video, 38% are part of a thread and 50% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 62K interactions, about 771x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Paul Ryan's engagement rate beats 27% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 26% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.
Where this sits in the catalog
At 0.003%, Paul Ryan sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,071 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

My heart is heavy with the passing of Officer Brian Sicknick. A true patriot, he gave his life to protect the business of the People. We must never forget his sacrifice & serve justice to his killer. My deepest sympathies to Officer Sicknick’s family & the entire USCP force.

While we rarely agreed on policy, I have a deep admiration for @SpeakerPelosi's lifetime of public service. For decades, she advocated for her beliefs, blazed a trail for female lawmakers, & protected the House as an institution. Congratulations to Nancy on a storied career.

Bob Dole was a soldier, a legislator, & a statesman. He always stood for what was just & right. I was honored to award him the Congressional Gold Medal & I’ll always be grateful for his service to our country. My thoughts are with the Dole family as we mourn this American hero. https://t.co/Wws3A3lxt9

A typical post picks up 80 interactions against 3.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.003%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 27% of 3,829 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

- What is Paul Ryan's engagement rate on X?
- Paul Ryan (@SpeakerRyan) has an engagement rate of 0.003%, based on the median interactions across 8 original posts from the last 30 days against 3,068,323 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.003%, Paul Ryan sits above the 10th percentile of the 37,071 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @SpeakerRyan have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 27% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @SpeakerRyan post?
- Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.53 posts per day across the measured window.
