Then add a check for when a player joins and check if it's his first time to know if you need to increase the count by 1.
The tricky part is how to know if it's his first time on the server, you could save an empty file with his login and then check if a player's file exists to know if it's his first time on the server.
Though that would conflict with the already existing players from when you added players manually, because you didn't create them a first join file.
So yeah it would be better to delete your stats file and use a "follower" lua file to save players who joined your server.
Of course if you already have a save system in your server you wouldn't need to care because you can just use those files!

Mami Tomoe: I have already thought about that. I will do that if there is no other possibility@
Baloon: I know that there are 4 ranks in my server but the script says the lowest rank is 2 1

function getlowestrank()
local dir = "sys/stats/userstats.dat"
local file = io.open(dir, "rb")
local res, size = 0, file:seek("end")
file:seek("set", 17)
repeat
file:read("*l")
res = res + 1
file:seek("cur", 34)
until file:seek("cur") >= size
file:close()
return res
end
--testing
print("Lowest rank is "..getlowestrank())
Edit: adding
file:close()at the end of the function.
