Couldn't you just measure against the general occurence of a word in online texts? Whether a word is rare or not shouldn't be dependent on people's answers, should it?

Yeah that's basically what Ngrams are.

an online search engine that charts the frequencies of any set of search strings using a yearly count of n-grams found in printed sources published between 1500 and 2019

Basically: how popular was it to use this word or phrase in all recorded text available to the search engine (including scanned old books), charted over time.

Thanks for the explanation. Yeah then I vote +1 for Ngrams. :D
