This is great, Sandor, thanks! DEV has a "premium" mode where you get some simple statistics on each post (daily reaction and comment counts), plus your daily follower total. It would be interesting if your work could be incorporated into that already-existing dashboard!

This is seriously cool, though. I'm inspired to go out and write my own DEV extension now!

I might check it with the DEV team. But I would also like to keep this completely open for everyone without having "premium" membership.
@ben what do you think about this?

This is really neat. The in-the-works premium stuff, which has sort of stalled for no other reason than we've had other things rise in priority, is "premium" because we'd ultimately like to make it "non-scalable", so offer folks who really want lots of data access to heavily optimized endpoints rather than having to create realtime data for everyone.

We'll be shipping more general API endpoints and little projects like this really push the ecosystem forward!
