Netflix is about to get all Hunger Games on Australia's Internet service providers (ISPs).

The popular video streaming service will launch its Australia and New Zealand ISP Speed Index at 11 p.m. AEST on Monday night, a spokesperson for Netflix confirmed to Mashable Australia.

The ISP Speed Index — which already operates in most Netflix territories, including Brazil, Argentina and Canada — ranks the monthly performance of ISPs streaming Netflix video content in primetime.

A spokesperson for the service said the Speed Index is something Netflix does across all countries it is available, in regular intervals. It will be the first time Australian ISPs have been included.

To calculate the index, Netflix says it measures the average prime-time bitrate for Netflix content streamed by Netflix members per ISP across all available devices. Netflix also publishes a monthly speed report summary on its blog.

Since it launched in March, Australian ISPs have gotten off to a shaky start with Netflix. Customers have complained about sluggish speeds and some ISPs have confirmed the service had jumped to 25% of network traffic in April.

Providers are still figuring out how to handle the seriously large amount of online film and television Australians want to watch. In April, Optus CEO Allen Lew suggested streaming services such as Netflix may have to cough up to ensure the delivery of premium quality video to their customers. However, a spokesperson for Telstra, Australia's largest telecommunications company, told Fairfax Media "prioritised content services are not on our agenda."

From Monday night, Netflix subscribers will be able to see Australian ISPs fight it out among themselves.
