It works as both a command-line tool and a library, querying data available for the last 180 days and presenting results in multiple formats (JSON, Markdown, HTML, TSV, plain text tables).\n\nThe tool supports several query types: recent downloads (last day/week/month), downloads by Python version (major or minor), downloads by system, and overall statistics. It can accept a package name directly or read from a local pyproject.toml or setup.cfg file. Results are formatted with color-coded terminal output by default and can be sorted by download count or date.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, installs with low friction, and solves a real need for developers who want to track PyPI download statistics without setting up BigQuery. The MIT license is permissive. Install it if you need programmatic or command-line access to PyPI Stats data."},"id":"pypistats","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pypistats","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pypistats.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pypistats/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-30","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pypistats","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python interface to PyPI Stats API https://pypistats.org/api"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":107361,"position":12616,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.14.0"}
