Hello!
The Analytics team would like to announce that the Pageview API is able to
return monthly pageview stats as of this week.
For example, the request below will get you a monthly count of pageviews
for de.wikipedia's article Barack_Obama for the year 2016 (note 'monthly'
parameter on url)
http://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/pageviews/per-article/de.wikipedia…
*monthly*/2016010100/2016123100
More documentation and examples can be found on our quickstart guide:

Thanks,
Nuria
