I would like to scrape https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;stats=recent to make real-time merit api and notifications, but this page lacks one crucial piece of data - the name and link to the profile of a user who received merit. Right now the only way to get this is to follow the link to the post that was merited and do additional scraping, but it just creates unnecessary load and is messy to implement.

I sent this in a PM to Theymos when merit was released, but no reply. I don't think he wants to make it too easy to scrape the data.

Meanwhile...

https://bpip.org/report.aspx?r=meritratio ---> Merit sent/received ratio
https://bpip.org/report.aspx?r=meritcircle ---> Merit circle (number of distinct profiles merit sent to or received from)
https://bpip.org/report.aspx?r=mostmerit ---> Most overall merit (initial and received)
https://bpip.org/report.aspx?r=mostmerited ---> Most merit received
https://bpip.org/report.aspx?r=meritsent ---> Most merit sent
https://bpip.org/smerit.aspx?to=&from=&start=&end=&min=&max= ---> Real Time Historical sMerit Transfer. See link for instructions
https://bpip.org/r/mostmerited.aspx ---> List of most merited posts for a certain time frame
