This can accessed be via url <a href=\"\/\/nuget.org\/api\/v2\/stats\/downloads\">nuget.org\/api\/v2\/stats\/downloads<\/a>. At this time, the top 500 packages are shown by default and that is also the maximum number returned.<\/p>\n<p>You can limit the numbers of results using ?count in the query string. For example, <a href=\"\/\/nuget.org\/api\/v2\/stats\/downloads?count=10\">nuget.org\/api\/v2\/stats\/downloads?count=10<\/a> would return the top 10 downloaded packages in last 6 weeks &#8211; with information like download count, gallery url and feed url for that package.<\/p>\n<p>The default and maximum count of 500 might change over time, so we recommend always specifying a count parameter if you are programmatically consuming this data.<\/p>\n<h3>Numeric rank for packages stats<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/nuget.org\/stats\">Statistics page<\/a> now shows the numeric rank of the package (based on the download count).<\/p>\n<h3>Links to gravatar in profile page<\/h3>\n<p>The profile editing page now includes help text and a link to gravatar making it easy for users to update their profile picture.<\/p>\n<h3>UserName optimization in DB (backend)<\/h3>\n<p>The &#8220;Users&#8221; table is optimized to have &#8220;UserName&#8221; as index for performance enhancements.<\/p>\n<h3>Other minor bug fixes<\/h3>\n<p>Complete list can be found here: <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/NuGet\/NuGetGallery\/issues?milestone=18&amp;state=closed\">Production Deployment 4\/12<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>March 28, 2013<\/h2>\n<h3>Support for MinClientVersion<\/h3>\n<p>You can now upload packages with &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/nuget.codeplex.com\/wikipage?title=NuGet%202.5%20list%20of%20features%20for%20Testing%20days%203%2f27%20to%203%2f29%20%2c%202013\">minclientVersion<\/a>&#8221; to the NuGetGallery.<\/p>\n<p>The minclientVersion of the package will shown in the package home page right next to the package description.<\/p>\n<h3>Contacting support<\/h3>\n<p>The &#8220;Report Abuse&#8221; page has been revamped to enable users to chose the specific issue with the package they are reporting.
