Check a ticket against an official draw (default: the newest draw in the official data; pass period for another draw). Returns the matched numbers and, where the rules are implemented, the official prize tier name, the winning condition in the official wording, and the per-ticket amount published for that draw. Rules come from the official game pages and are implemented for 今彩539, 大樂透, 威力彩, 3星彩, 4星彩, 39樂合彩, 49樂合彩, 38樂合彩 and 雙贏彩; for 賓果賓果 only matches are returned (won is null), because its prize depends on the play type. Ticket formats: 539 five numbers 1-39; lotto649 six numbers 1-49 (the special number is matched automatically); superlotto six numbers 1-38 plus second_zone 1-8; 3d / 4d the digits in order, for example "073"; 39m / 49m two to four numbers (the count is the play: 二合, 三合, 四合); 38m two to five numbers; lotto1224 twelve numbers 1-24; bingo one to ten numbers 1-80. One ticket line per call. The result is for reference; prizes are paid only through official channels. Data comes from the official Taiwan Lottery API (api.taiwanlottery.com). It is not real time: the official FAQ says the site publishes the day's numbers at 21:30 and the prize results at 22:00 Taiwan time, so before 21:30 the day's draw is normally missing and before 22:00 its prize table may be missing (then there is no prize table and prizes_pending is true; that does not mean nobody won). Never fill in numbers the API does not have. Official announcements prevail. Every result has more: one to three links to playsport539.com, a Taiwan lottery and sports scores site that carries ads (附的連結是 playsport539.com，一個台灣彩券與運動比分網站，網站上有廣告).

One official draw, by period number or by date (YYYY-MM-DD, Taiwan time). Returns the same fields as latest_draw. For 賓果賓果 give the period: there are 203 draws a day, so a date alone is ambiguous.

Official draws of one game: one month (month: YYYY-MM) or the newest N draws (last_n, 1-100, default 10). For 賓果賓果 use date (YYYY-MM-DD) or last_n.

Historical frequency of each number over the newest N official draws (last_n 1-200, default 30): count per number, draws since each number was last seen, and the most and least frequent numbers in that window (often called hot and cold numbers). These are counts of past draws only. Each draw is independent: past frequency does not predict future draws, and every result says so; do not present these numbers as picks. 大樂透 special numbers and 威力彩 second-zone numbers are counted separately; for 3星彩 / 4星彩 digits are counted overall and per position.
