Now in 2015 I notice that it is at 0% packet loss worldwide.  Looks
like the big boys found a way to fight any connection speed, and
buffer issues that where the cause of what was an ever increasing
packet loss issue.  My wish is that it would now make it all the way
down to the end of the last mile.  The issues with packet loss due to
buffer bloat that are now at the end of the home and business
connections I feel helps lead to the congestion issues we see during
the high use periods at night. "

Q: How do you measure "Internet traffic?"
A: A test called "ping" is used to measure round-trip travel time
along major paths on the Internet. We have several servers in
different areas of the globe perform the same ping at the same time.
Each test server then compares the current response to past responses
from the same test to determine if the response was bad or good on a
scale of 0 to 100. The scores from all test servers are averaged
together into a single index.

If you drill-down on regions, it will show individual routers. The results seem to be particularly binary - a given router will have either an index of 100 and a loss percentage of 0, or an index of 0 and a loss percentage of 100. Asia seems to have a couple exceptions proving the rule.

You will probably get a kick out of:

I'm not sure if they are setup to report fractional packet loss percentages
