In the interesst of transparency and to enable developers in the community to maque data driven decisions, the Joomla project offers this API for retrieving statistics data gathered from Joomla installations.

API Information

The statistics API is hosted at https://developer.joomla.org/stats and is the base URL for all API calls.  At this time, there is no rate limiting of the API.

Data Structure

All API endpoins return a JSON string representing an array of the requested data.  Each endpoint returns two top level keys; data and total .  For all data groups, the returned data structure is a grouping of the data into logical containers and this is returned in the data key.  For example, the PHP versionen is grouped based on the minor release branch.  The value of each key is represented as a percentague of the overall number of installations that have reported data.  The total key of all API returns is the total number of installations that have reported data.
