I'd also recommend doing both. +1 to the schema proposed by Gabriel.
I'm sure it'll come up eventually but, just a few thoughts:
* Both can be cached (one can be cached for <24h, the other longer). * The dynamic range allows useful linking to answer canonical questions regarding current trends. * The dynamic range can either be a redirect resolved by the web app, or it can simply do the response directly (I recommend the latter; but either can cache for <24h). It should probably specify "link rel=canonical" (HTTP header or HTML tag, for machines) with the expanded url, and in case of a UI it can advertise this as the "Permalink" (for humans).

And, per Tgr on Phabricator, option 2 means that urls are stable, so I can link to some data and expect it to show the same data later on.

I would prefer to have both days-in-past and start/end daterange options, along the lines of Adam's proposal.
But if I have to choose one, I concur with Leila. Start/end daterange
offers
more functionality.

Big +1 to Adam. Is the top articles the first deliverable we should expect?

Another option would be a single entry point
/top/{project}/{access}/from/{start}{/end}
with support for negative indexes for 'days in the past':
/top/{project}/{access}/from/-30 /top/{project}/{access}/from/-60/-30
as well as full dates:
/top/en.wikipedia/all-access/2014-06-12/2015-08-30
Correction:
/top/en.wikipedia/all-access/from/2014-06-12/2015-08-30

It's getting exciting. :-)
I'd go with choice 2 since it gives more control to the user while offering what the user can get through choice 1 as well.
Question: will we get page_ids or page_titles or both? It's good to have both.
