Search and scrape the WordPress.org plugin directory — active installs, ratings, versions, last-updated — for ASO and competitor research.

Query the WordPress.org plugin directory by keyword and get structured data on every matching plugin: active installs, rating, number of ratings, version, last-updated, and description. No account, no API key, and no proxies — this Actor reads a stable public API and returns clean, structured data you can download as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or pull straight from the Apify API.

Features

  • ⚡ Fast & reliable — hits a stable public endpoint, so runs don't get blocked or break on layout changes.
  • 🎯 Clean structured output — every result is a flat record with consistent fields (name, slug, activeInstalls, rating, numRatings, lastUpdated, url).
  • 🔁 Batch & schedulable — pass multiple queries in one run, or schedule it for a always-fresh feed.
  • 🔌 Integrates everywhere — export JSON/CSV/Excel or connect via the API, webhooks, Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, and 5,000+ integrations.

Who it's for

Micro-SaaS / plugin founders (ASO + competitor watch), agencies, and WordPress market researchers.

Common use cases

  • Market, competitor, and trend research
  • Feeding dashboards, spreadsheets, and internal tools
  • Enriching datasets and powering AI / RAG / automation workflows

Input

FieldTypeDescription

}

Output

One record per result. Example output:

{
"name": "Example item",
"slug": "...",
"activeInstalls": 1234,
"rating": 4.6,
"numRatings": 4.6,
"lastUpdated": "2024-01-15",
"url": "https://example.com/item"
}

Fields: name, slug, activeInstalls, rating, numRatings, lastUpdated, url. Download as JSON, CSV, XML, or Excel — or fetch programmatically from the dataset API.

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-result: you're billed only for the records you actually get. No monthly fee, and empty runs cost nothing — so it's dramatically cheaper than manual research or bloated data subscriptions.

FAQ

Do I need an API key or login? No — it uses a public endpoint. How fresh is the data? It's fetched live on every run, so it's as current as the source. Can I run it automatically? Yes — schedule it (hourly / daily / weekly) or trigger it via API or webhook. How do I get more results? Increase maxItems, or pass several queries in a single run. What formats can I export? JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, or via the API.

Notes

This Actor reads a public API. Please use it responsibly and within the data provider's terms of service.
