Export structured data on Firefox add-ons from addons.mozilla.org (AMO): daily users, download counts, ratings, versions, categories, and publisher contact details. Built on Mozilla's official public JSON API, so it needs no login, API key, proxy, or captcha solving.
Point it at a keyword, a category, or the whole catalog, sort by users or rating, and get one clean row per add-on including the publisher's homepage, support URL, and support email for lead generation.
What you get per add-on
Each result row includes:
- Identity: name, slug, guid, AMO URL, type (extension, theme, dictionary, language pack)
- Popularity: average daily users, weekly downloads
- Quality: rating average, Bayesian rating, rating count, written-review count
- Version: current version, license, last updated, created date
- Taxonomy: categories, tags
- Publisher leads: author names, author usernames, author profile URLs, homepage, support URL, support email, contributions URL
- Flags: requires payment, has privacy policy, experimental, icon URL
Input
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| searchQuery | string | Keyword to match name, summary, and description. Leave empty to browse the full catalog. |
| addonType | enum | extension, statictheme, dictionary, language, or all. Default: extension. |
| category | string | AMO category slug, for example privacy-security, shopping, tabs, search-tools. |
| sort | enum | users, rating, hotness, downloads, created, updated, relevance. Default: users. |
| language | string | Locale for localized fields like name and summary, for example en-US, de, fr. |
| maxItems | integer | Cap on returned add-ons. Default 100. |
Example input:
Who uses it
- Extension and theme developers sizing a niche before building, or tracking competitors' user and rating growth over time.
- Product and market researchers mapping a category and its top publishers.
- Sales and BD teams building lead lists of extension publishers with public homepages and support emails.
- Security and compliance teams reviewing add-on metadata and privacy-policy presence at scale.
Notes
The AMO search API caps deep pagination near 10,000 results per query, so narrow with a search term or category to reach specific long-tail add-ons. The scraper respects the API with retries and backoff on rate limits.
Data belongs to Mozilla and the respective add-on authors. Use it in line with Mozilla's terms and applicable law.
