To replicate the data run the following command from Bitcoin Core website's source repository.

for version_folder in $(find _doc/en/ -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d | grep '0$' |sort); do printf "$(basename $version_folder), "; find "$version_folder/rpc/" -mindepth 1 -type d -exec ls {} \; | wc -w ; done
