My 2 cents:

Data on pageviews endpoint is available under:
https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/ (you need to expand each
endpoint to see this, sorry, that  UX could be better).

You can add to pageview tool a note about licensing of the features it
provides. For example: see the footer on wikistats:
https://stats.wikimedia.org/v2/#/all-projects

"All data, charts, and other content is available under the Creative
Commons CC0 dedication."


Thanks,

Nuria
