I have a Google Analytics account covering one of my web sites and I was wondering if it's possible to extract data from it? If it can be done, then how would one do it?
Not really PHP-related, but at the top of each page in Analytics there's an Export button. Depending on what page you're looking at you can get a variety of formats including XML, CSV and TSV. Not sure if you can get at it without going through the login process.
    I would certainly hope not, but the login could be automated using
cURL anyway.
One option would be to use the email feature to get it sent to a PHP script on a schedule. -Stut -- http://stut.net/
    I haven't used GA (probably the only web guy left in the world),
but if it has an email feature like Stut mentioned, Tedd, you could run it through a piped-to-PHP email-parsing script.
Is there an echo in here? -Stut -- http://stut.net/
