Thanks for ruining today's game for everyone.

Lexico (Oxford):
https://www.lexico.com/definition/hapax_legomenon
A term of which only one instance of use is recorded.
‘In philology a hapax legomenon is almost always a word and is a problem because a single usage doesn't generally give us enough information to figure out what it means.’

I thought this - with the other answer - was rather clever as a one off for today. People are too obsessed with stats and losing.

It would have been clever if it was actually guessable. I don't care about stats.  I had to eventually Google what 5 letter word ended with x and came up with nothing with two As in their spots.  Missed opportunity to make a good joke.

It's guessable xP It's a word I've run into several times when reading about various language topics on Wikipedia, and it's rather memorable, so I guessed it with guesses to spare. For a one-off that doesn't even count against you if you lose, I think it's a pretty clever choice.
