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.
Yes, it needs direct access to the database:
https://forja.rediris.es/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/trunk/help.txt?root=stat... «The system needs read-access to the MediaWiki installation database.»
Our approach is using only MediaWiki API.
But it is a pretty nice project to analyze the kind of metrics is producing.
Thanks Federico!
