gibbons Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Could anyone point me in the right direction for downloading app store statistics from: -the Apple App Store -The Android Market -the Amazon AppStore Specifically, I'd like to get the -average selling price of apps -the top selling apps -the distribution of tablets vs. phones, etc. (e.g. how many apps are there for Honeycomb? How many for iPad?) -total number of apps in store -free vs. paid apps I've seen some sites like http://148apps.biz/app-store-metrics/ and http://www.appbrain.com/stats/ How do these sites get their data? There must be a way to export the whole app store database as a CSV file, or import it to MySQL and run queries. Thanks much for any direction.

shlumph Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 You could take a look at cURL and xPath, however, I wouldn't be surprised if those sites would block you after doing so many frequent page requests.
