Hi Anand,
It looks like the results from those two queries are from different days. The first set
is from April 5 and the second is from April 6. For the results from April 5 in the REST
API, you'll want
https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/feed/featured/2017/04/06.
Also please note that the results from the Action API (api.php) aren't sorted in
decreasing pageview order as the REST API's are. You'll need to sort them
yourself. (Depending on the number of results you need, you should also familiarize
yourself with query continuation as well as the result limits per request on the various
modules you're using (for instance, 20 for TextExtracts and 50 for PageImages as
indicated at the bottom of the results of your query)).
After ensuring you have the same date and sorting the Action API results, you should have
the same or very similar results. For instance, looking at the results from April 5, it
looks like "Lake Nyos Disaster" is on top with 497638 pageviews in both sets.
You still might see slight discrepancies between the two sources due to implementation
details, however; for instance, in the REST API endpoint we use a heuristic to attempt to
filter out pages with pageview counts likely inflated by bot traffic, and so a few pages
here and there that appear in the Action API results wouldn't appear in the REST API
list.
Best,
Michael
