Plugshare now lists (Their Numbers) a total of 16,041 Stations
They use dynamic tracking to both add new - and remove redundant, or test stations that are dropped, so simply adding in the new additions - does not equal the total numbers, and sometimes - new additions are listed - but need to have duplicate entries purged.

The additions tracked are:
