Twitch Top Games & Categories Scraper + Steam Deals Ranker

Find the best Steam deals right now — ranked by real value (discount × review score × player activity), not just discount % — and the hottest Twitch categories ranked by live viewer heat. Clean JSON, no proxies, no Steam API key.

Modes

deals — scans current Steam specials and ranks them by a value score combining discount %, review score, and live player counts. Filters: min_discount, min_review, count (up to 100 specials scanned). Use it for: deals newsletters and sites, Discord/Telegram deal bots, price-tracking dashboards, affiliate content.

twitch-hype — ranks top Twitch categories by current viewer heat (needs a free Twitch app credential from dev.twitch.tv: twitch_client_id + twitch_client_secret). Use it for: streamer research (what to stream), games-marketing timing, trend dashboards.

Why this actor

• Value ranking, not discount spam — a 90%-off dead game ranks below a 60%-off hit with 20k live players.
• No keys for Steam, no proxies — live data with short caching; the free Twitch credential is only needed for hype mode.
• Same engine as the GameDataKit x402 API (api.borisinc.com) used by AI agents — this Store listing is the card-billed version.

Common recipes

• Deal bot: schedule deals hourly with min_discount: 50, min_review: 80; post new entries to Discord/Telegram.
• What-to-stream: run twitch-hype daily; cross-reference rising categories against deals for content timing.
