Overview
Code::Stats is a free API that tracks programming activity by language, recording XP points earned through coding. You can retrieve a user's total stats, XP per language, and recent activity history. It is a fun way to add developer activity statistics to portfolios or personal dashboards.
Beginner Tip
Code::Stats profiles are public by default, so you can query any username without authentication — perfect for adding your coding stats to a personal website with zero setup.
Available Data
The kind of data this API exposes, based on its documentation. We could not call the endpoint to confirm the exact field names.
Example Response
Illustrative shape only — we were not able to call this endpoint (it requires credentials or exposes no public sample URL), so the fields below show the kind of data this API returns rather than a recorded response.

const response = await fetch(url, {
headers: {
"X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
});
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data); What Can You Build?
