14's search function isn't accurate. AFAIK you can't search players in instance.

ARR is kinda instance based MMORPG, 95%(or more) of event happen in instances, most players spend their time in instances. Using search function won't give you accurate number unless they change it recently.

You won't be able to know the exact active player in ARR, SE wouldn't release it. They only ever give a vague and misleading number like "2 million registered account".
