This is a development we're doing not in
connection with our provision
of metrics about MediaWiki, therefore it is not specifically aimed at
improving the stats you currently have. In fact, it has been developed
exactly for the scenario you mention: MediaWiki instances for which you
want the get metrics via the API, not dumps.
Ok. If this includes self-hosted wikis, you may want to look into
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/StatMediaWiki . Hm, I thought that used
direct DB queries but I may misremember.
Thanks! It is pretty interesting. Our approach is a bit different:
retrieve information from the wiki, store it into a database, and then
produce analysis, visualization, etc from the database. But the
functionality of StatMediaWiki is cool, indeed (however, it seems it
still needs the dump to work, which is something we try to avoid).
Saludos,
Jesus.
