Do any of the strongest MCTS programs have a rank at 9x9 on any major
server? I found the "fuego9" account on KGS but it appears to be
unranked and only playing free games (*). The "ManyFaces" account
appears to play only 19x19.
On KGS, ratings are calculated from 19x19 games only. A rating there
aims to measure strength at 19x9 Go, and nothing else.
On OGS ( http://www.online-go.com ), a play-by-move server, 9x9 games
are used for rating purposes. The bot player Fuego9x9_1h there has a
rating of 5.7 dan. This bot runs on ordinary desktop-type hardware, but
thinks for an hour about each move. Its opponents are also allowed to
think for an hour, or even a day, about each move, but it is most
unlikely that any of them do.
I don't know about other servers.

I know the programs are stronger at 9x9 than 19x19, but I'm trying to
get a figure of just exactly how strong they are against humans of known
rank. Ideally in a statistically meaningful way (not just a short series
of games against one player), and on non-supercomputer hardware.
Thanks in advance,
Darren
