LOTTO 6aus49 Statistics
Frequency analysis, hot/cold numbers, pairs, triplets, sum distribution — computed over rolling windows (10, 25, 50, 100, 500 and all-time).
Frequency per number (last 10 draws)
Each bar shows how often a number was drawn in the selected window. Over long periods the bars even out — differences in short windows are ordinary randomness and make no number more likely.

What this statistic shows — and what it does not
This analysis draws on 4,238 verified LOTTO 6aus49 draws since 1991. For whichever window you pick — the last 10, 25, 50, 100, 500 draws, or the whole history — we count how often each of the 49 numbers was drawn, which pairs and triplets appeared together, how sums, odd/even and high/low split, and how long the gap has been since each number last appeared.
That the bars differ in height is entirely normal and is not a signal. In a 6-of-49 draw each number comes up roughly every eight draws on average; across 100 draws the spread expected from chance alone is several hits either way. A number that appeared 18 times instead of 12 is therefore not “hot” — it sits inside the normal variation of a fair draw.
This is exactly where sound statistics part ways with number mysticism. The draw has no memory: the balls do not know what happened last week, and each of the 13,983,816 possible combinations has precisely the same chance every single time. Terms like “overdue number” describe a feeling, not a probability — the gambler’s fallacy.
What the numbers are genuinely good for: showing which combinations are popular with other players. Birthday numbers (1–31), patterns on the play slip, and runs like 1-2-3-4-5-6 are picked far more often than average. Avoiding them does not improve your chance of winning — but if you do win, you share the prize with fewer people. That is the only real lever statistics offer in a lottery, and it is exactly what our model is built around.
