@keinishikori - 884K followers on X
Measured over 21 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 22, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.0K interactions against 884K followers, an engagement rate of 0.117%. Measured over 21 original posts, its engagement rate beats 75% of 3,848 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 57K times each, and 1.80% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.50% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.4 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 27% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 21 posts sampled, 90% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 18K interactions, about 18x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #mubadaladcopen, #dcopen, #cincytennis.

Compared with accounts its own size
Kei Nishikori's engagement rate beats 75% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,848 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 67% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 00:00 UTC, and Monday 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.

Measured over 21 original posts, its engagement rate beats 75% of 3,848 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

That is about 6.50% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

- What is Kei Nishikori's engagement rate on X?
- Kei Nishikori (@keinishikori) has an engagement rate of 0.117%, based on the median interactions across 21 original posts from the last 30 days against 883,510 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.117%, Kei Nishikori sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,320 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 @keinishikori have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 75% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,848 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 @keinishikori post?
- Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.4 posts per day across the measured window.
