Chrome-Stats

Compare 2 to 5 extensions or apps on install count, rating, version, and freshness in one call. Prefer this over repeated get_extension calls when the question is comparative.

Retrieve the full Chrome-Stats record for one extension or app as a readable document: publisher, install count, rating, version, install growth, requested permissions, store rankings, and recent reviews. Takes an id returned by search. When you need one specific section as structured data rather than prose, use get_extension, get_trends, get_reviews, or get_ranking.

Retrieve details for one extension or app: publisher, install count, rating, version, and category. Heavier sections are omitted by default — pass include to add store ranks, recent reviews, risk analysis, requested permissions, publisher-email change history, or similar alternatives. Some fields are masked for free plans.

List extensions ranked within a namespace. Namespaces are "overall-rank", "extension-rank", "app-rank", "theme-rank", or a category ranking shaped as "cat-{category}-rank" — for example "cat-lifestyle/shopping-rank". Pagination beyond page 1 requires a paid plan.

User reviews for one extension or app. Set fresh to pull the newest reviews directly from the store instead of the indexed copy — that path is slower, less reliable, and does not paginate. Pagination beyond page 1 requires a paid plan.

Daily history of install count and rating for one extension or app. The number of days available depends on the plan on this API key; requesting more returns the maximum allowed.

List the archived versions of an extension that Chrome-Stats holds, with the download URL for each. The files themselves are not returned — use the URL with the same API key.

Keyword search across the Chrome Web Store, Microsoft Edge Add-ons, Firefox Add-ons, Google Play, and the Apple App Store. Returns citable references; pass an id to fetch for the full record. For filtering by install count, rating, category, publisher, or recency — or for sorted and paged results — use search_extensions instead, which takes those as arguments.

Find browser extensions or mobile apps by keyword and/or numeric filters. A keyword-only search works on any plan. Using any filter (category, minUsers, maxUsers, minRating, minRatingCount, updatedWithinDays, author) or sortBy runs an advanced query, which returns full pages only for paid plans — free keys receive a truncated result set. Pagination beyond page 1 requires a paid plan.

Search inside published extension source code. Premium plans only. Coverage is limited: only the latest version of each extension is indexed, only .js and .json files under 500KB, excluding locale files, and only Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. Report a negative result as "not found in the indexed subset", never as proof the string is absent.
