webrank 3.0.0

Open domain popularity + authority rank — a free Tranco alternative (webrank + pagerank).

webrank (Python)

Official Python client for webrank — the open domain popularity + authority rank, a free alternative to Tranco. No API key, no rate-limit signup.

Two numbers per domain:

• webrank — popularity rank (1 = most popular), driven by real user traffic.
• pagerank — 0–10 link authority (PageRank-style): how much the web links to it.

Install

pip install webrank

Use

import webrank

webrank.rank("google.com")
# {'domain': 'google.com', 'webrank': 1, 'webrank_score': 10.0, 'pagerank': 10.0,
#  'sources': 8, 'ranks': {...}, 'updated': '2026-07-15'}

webrank.rank_many(["stripe.com", "gmpg.org"])   # batch, one request
webrank.top(100)                                 # the leaderboard
webrank.history("github.com")                    # monthly trend

Or grab the whole list (top 1M, updated daily; monthly snapshots are permanent + citable):

curl -O https://api.webrank.top/list/webrank-latest.csv.gz

How it works

The rank is a data-driven composite of eight public sources, with weights derived from agreement with real-traffic data (not guessed) — it predicts real user traffic ~46% better than an equal-weighted list. Full method: https://webrank.top/methodology.
