The Changes from Hero to Legendary are not easy to detect, since we cannot solely use Merit and received sMerit as a base to backtrack the changes in rank for these cases.
What Ive done to derive the above is to compare the most current user profile scrape to that of the previous weeks, and placed a reference date to the data extraction date being used (meaning that the actual ranking should have taken place within the week from the reference date backwards).
The above list is for July 2018 (to go back any further Id have to look through backups and so forth which I dont think we really need to go into now).
The minimum activity considered is 952 for these cases, repeated on six occasions (roughly, since the activity is the activity as of 29/06/2018, and not that at the exact moment they changed rank).
There are also some de-ranked Legendries (probably after deleting some posts) or that have changed to being a Copper Member:
