Well, for players in the same level, yes, but only when they change. It's really not a lot of data; a player enters a level, say they have 30 attributes with "1234567890", which is probably about average length.
That ends up looking like this (pardon the max word length of the forums):

..which is approximately 300 bytes (0.29296875 kilobytes). Obviously it'd be slightly more, but it's not a whole lot of data at all, especially since it doesn't have to update all the time.
