Forwarding a note from Ashok Rao (cc’ed), can anyone comment on the dumps server returning 503s?
Ashok – we don’t have yet an in-house API to retrieve pageview data, but the Analytics team is working on one: see this thread <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T44259#1341010>. Depending on what you’re doing, http://stats.grok.se/ <http://stats.grok.se/> may also come in handy.
