The issue is that the length of a ring can be different as heard by the caller depending on the country/location of the recipient.  Also, the ringing on the recipients' device/phone can also be variable based on their ring-tone preferences and the make and model of the device/phone.  In other words, 3 rings can consist of 2 different lengths as heard by the caller and the callee.  As such, duration in seconds is really the only consistent way I know how to measure the timing of a ring.

Subject: Rings Versus Seconds
The system appears to use seconds instead of rings to measure incoming call
timing.  Is that correct?

If so, is there a way to change things to use number or rings instead?
