Does anyone know of a way to extract Google Play data? Such as downloads, searches, search results ... I was hoping there was some way I could request the data from google. There seems to be quite a few websites that do analytics on it, so I was curious if anyone has experience in extracting the data.

Thanks!

There is no official API or way to get data from Google Play.

Certain websites scrape data from the Google Play website using scripts, but this is not a guaranteed way to get the data.

Google Play's web site patterns often change and scraping data like this is generally a bad idea. Google will likely block most attempts - at least if they're obvious.

As a developer, you have the option of downloading statistics on your own applications, but that's it.

Also... This is hardly a programming question. Seems fairly off topic.
