## About lighttpd

### At a glance

- **Website:** lighttpd.net ↗

- **Language:** C

- **License:** BSD

- **First release:** 2003-01-01

A web server with 83 distinct versions still answering requests is telling you something about its users before you look at anything else. lighttpd is small, fast and old, released in 2003 and written in C, and the reason so many builds survive in the field is that a large share of them are not websites at all.

Lighttpd ended up inside things. Routers, cameras, storage boxes, printers, industrial controllers and set-top boxes ship it as the server behind an administration panel, because it fits in very little memory and needs almost no configuration to serve a few pages. Firmware gets written once and updated rarely, so the release we record most often, 1.4.45, persists not because an administrator chose it but because it was compiled into a device long ago and the device is still plugged in.

The practical consequence is that this population splits in two and the split is not labelled. One part is deliberate hosting: static file servers, media and asset delivery, small virtual machines where somebody wanted something lighter than Apache. The other part is device management interfaces that were never meant to face the public internet. Both answer with the same banner. Telling them apart takes the surrounding evidence, which is what the rest of the dataset provides: what the page title says, whether the address resolves into a residential or carrier network, whether anything else in the stack looks like a content management system.

Russia accounts for 88,293 of the 131,888 sites we detect as of October 2026, and .ru leads the domain breakdown. Concentrations of that size in a server population usually reflect a hosting provider's default image or a national carrier shipping the same customer equipment to every subscriber. Either explanation points at the same conclusion: the country column here describes where the machines physically sit, not where anybody made a decision about web infrastructure.

The server is community maintained under the BSD license with no company behind it, which removes the commercial angle a proprietary product would have and replaces it with a security one. An unpatched, widespread, unattended server is a research target and an exposure to be sized, and the version spread in the Web servers data is what makes that work tractable, because narrowing the population down to the builds affected by a specific advisory becomes a query rather than a project.

Detection rests on the server banner. Anything behind a CDN or a reverse proxy reports the front end instead, and administrators who suppress the banner drop out of the count entirely, so the figure is a floor. A per-domain lookup confirms one host and nothing more. The downloadable list is what lets you count an affected estate, watch a version cohort shrink after a patch lands, and find the networks where old firmware is concentrated.

## Frequently asked questions

How many websites use lighttpd?
webatla detects lighttpd on 132K websites, refreshed daily, each with its domain, DNS, WHOIS, IP, country and ranking.

Can I download the list of websites using lighttpd?
Yes, as structured JSONL. Grab a free sample first.

What's included for each site, and how fresh is it?
Domain, DNS, RDAP/WHOIS, the full technology stack, IP & country, PageRank and Harmonic, re-detected and re-exported daily.

How do I find the websites using lighttpd?
Buy the technology dataset, then download the complete list of domains we detect using lighttpd, re-exported every day.

What else is in the lighttpd technology data?
Each row places lighttpd next to the other technology on the same site, plus DNS, WHOIS, IP, country and ranking.

Can I download just the sites using lighttpd, or the whole database?
Both. Every site running lighttpd comes in the Technologies dataset, one downloadable file. Or buy All data for the entire database: technologies plus identity, ranking, DNS and RDAP/WHOIS for every domain, combined in one file. Daily fresh export.

How do I download the list of websites using lighttpd?
Three steps: (1) grab the free 10,000-row sample to inspect the schema, (2) buy the Technologies dataset, (3) download the full list of every domain we detect running lighttpd as a JSON Lines file. It is re-exported daily, so you can re-download the freshest list any time inside your access window. Each row carries the domain plus DNS, WHOIS, IP, hosting country and rank.
