Example API Usage: Realm Pop

Realm Pop shows you population statistics on the players' characters in World of Warcraft.

You can find out the most popular races and classes on your realm, or across all realms, or across a subset of realms that you choose (for example, PvP realms, or Oceanic realms). On realm pages, with each subset you choose, you will also get a partial list of characters so you can look them up on the Armory.

Find it here:
http://wow.realmpop.com/

Do we have a thread here that lists API apps? I'm curious to find apps I've missed. There's obviously a bunch of us here, but I don't hear much about the apps that get produced.

For the time it is taking to load, Can I conclude that you are not catching the data you get from blizz?


I suspect the load time is influenced by the fact that the entire site is a distributed API crawler and your browser is loading API data that then updates the site.
