Latency of hourly vs daily endpoints?

Who could I ask about the latency of some of the REST endpoints? I see that I can get very recent pageviews data, e.g.

https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/pageviews/aggregate/en.wikipedia/all-access/all-agents/hourly/2018031600/2018031800

accessed now, at 2018/03/17 0230 UTC, gives me an hourly pageviews on the English Wikipedia at timestamp "2018031623", so about ~3.5 hours latency, very nice!

In contrast, asking for the daily number of edits via

https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/edits/aggregate/en.wikipedia/all-editor-types/all-page-types/daily/20180225/20180317

only gives me data up to the end of February. This makes me think the daily datasets are generated only once a month? Who can I ask about this latency, and whether more recent "rest_v1/metrics/edits" data can be obtained? Thanks!
