Meteorites are meteoroids that have impacted the Earth. Meteors are meteoroids that have burned up (or are burning) in the atmosphere.

Around 25 million meteors hit Earth's atmosphere every day. Most are not visible, but on a dark night it's not uncommon to see 5-10 visible meteors per hour from wherever you happen to be.
These are not being tracked. It would be nearly impossible to do so.
