Pageview information about Wikimedia sites, which has
been available for a
while through the standalone Pageviews REST API [1], is now available in
the action API as well, through the prop=pageviews [2], list=mostviewed [3]
and meta=siteviews [4] API modules. An example:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&format=jsonf
m&errorformat=plaintext&prop=pageviews&list=mostviewed&
meta=siteviews&titles=Main+Page&formatversion=2&pvipdays=
3&pvimlimit=3&pvisdays=3
The new API modules basically act as a proxy to the REST API, and are
meant as a less flexible but more convenient alternative for people who
already use the action API.
