I'm scripting a global leaderboard with data store, so I can't use a localscript, which means I can't use the TextBounds property. What else can I do to match the length of the GUI to the end of the labels last letter?

How to TextBounds without using the property?

Hmm... Create your own function? (count the number of pixels used for each character) OR (no idea if can work) use a localscript to get the value, and send it to the real script...

If it's extremely necessary, use a RemoteFunction.
Always use localscript when building UIs. There are ways of getting data from the server to the client for this exact purpose. As @Articulating mentions, RemoteFunction.
