Notes

• X stopped publishing tweet counts outside its paid API, so no free source shows a "tweets" number any more. tweetScore is the source site's relative volume index, useful for ranking, not an exact count.
• Rank history is read from the source site's hourly chart, so a value can be off by one place.
• Trends are the country-level lists X publishes; city-level lists are not available from this source.
• Schedule the actor hourly (Apify Schedules) to build your own long-term trend history.
