I have the id of an event I'd like to read; but that event is not on any of the relays I subscribe to. Is there a service that will query relays for an id and let me know which relays contain it?

You can swap out the event id and see what my API knows about.
Example
Otherwise I’ve seen two recent projects that do this client side and query 100+ relays to see if they have an event. I don’t have links sadly, but they exist.
I like this api. Are you planning on leaving it up all the time?

I mostly use it myself for looking up stuff adhoc without a SQL query. No plans to kill it, but it does rely on relay aggregation which has been a time consuming to maintain - mostly spam mitigation.
The seen by data only listens to relays and doesn’t crawl, so it’s most accurate closer to initial event broadcast time. And relay aggregation varies between 120-180 or so.
I don’t know if anyone else uses it for anything serious, but it does have rate limiting.
