Scrape Social Blade's YouTube top-creator leaderboard. Extracts rank, username, subscriber counts, video views, and 30-day subscriber growth for the top creators.
What it does
Social Blade publishes a ranked list of the top YouTube creators by subscriber count. This actor fetches that leaderboard, waits for the JavaScript-rendered table to populate, and extracts structured data for each creator row.
- YouTube top-creator leaderboard (Social Blade discontinued public leaderboards for other platforms)
- Offset-based pagination — each page returns 100 creators; request up to 1,000 total
- Clears Social Blade's JS challenge automatically

Notes
- Social Blade's leaderboard pages are bot-protected and render in the browser, which is why most scrapers return nothing. This one loads them reliably.
- Subscriber counts and view counts are returned as formatted strings (e.g.
"497M","128.15B") matching what Social Blade displays — not raw integers. - The
monthly_subs_changefield shows the net change in subscribers over the last 30 days. - Not all platforms expose the same statistics; unavailable fields will be empty strings.
