That seems like too many requests to be coming from the DiscourseHub app. If you have the [Data Explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) installed on your site, I’d be curious about the results of this query:

```sql
SELECT
application_name,
COUNT(application_name) AS user_count
FROM user_api_keys
GROUP BY application_name

```

I tested that query on my own test site, but it only has one `user_api_request` from the DiscourseHub app. I _think_ I’ve structured the query correctly for dealing with multiple users connecting to Discourse from multiple apps, but let me know if anything in the results seems off.
