A quick and dirty Google.Chrome extension that grabs story stats from your Medium.com stats page and saves them as a .CSV file.
- Once installed in Chrome, direct or download and goto extensions and tick the 'developer mode' option and then add using the 'Load and unpack extension...' button).
- Log into your Medium.com site, go to your Stats page and scroll to the last item you want the stats for (as Medium uses infinite scrolling).
- Hit the little
'M' extension icon and it will generate a .CSV file (with "|" delimiters).
Data structure looks like so: mediumID|title|link|publication|mins|views|reads|readRatio|fans|pubDate|liveDate
