About how long does it take Google WMT to refresh stats on "Links to Your Site"?

About how long does it take Google WMT to refresh stats on "Links to Your Site"?  We're dealing with an unnatural link/anchor phrase issue and I'm curious as to the "typical" time it takes for Google to recognize the links removal or Anchor Text change.

Any refresh time ideas on OpenSiteExplorer or AHREFS as well would be a plus...

Thanks!

For WMT, they seem to update "Links to your site" data every 4-5 days.  And when they do, the data is about 10 - 14 days old.

Don't take these times as an indicator for when Google considers a link or not.  It's not kept closely up to date with their index.

Ahrefs/Majestic are pretty fast in my experience.  Sometimes in as little as 1-2 days for links on popular domains.

For OSE, it's once a month.  The last update post says they'll be cutting that time down to weeks -- and eventually more often as they move from amazon to their own hardware.
