Short answer

How can I get web traffic data using my AI?

Your AI uses the get_stats tool to fetch visitor counts and pageviews for any domain you specify. You get the raw numbers and trends without ever opening a browser tab. Here is how the data flows.

Where every request lands.

Data outcomes

The AI processes your request and delivers specific traffic metrics.

RAW DATA

Direct traffic counts

The AI uses get_stats to pull exact visitor numbers. You get the specific counts you asked for immediately.

ANALYSIS

Trend identification

Your agent compares current pageviews against previous periods. It spots spikes or drops in traffic automatically.

REPORTING

Formatted summaries

The AI turns raw numbers into readable lists or tables. You can then copy these directly into your notes or docs.

HUMAN

Strategic decisions

The AI provides the numbers, but you decide what the traffic shifts mean for your business. You interpret the context.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and your Simple Analytics data.

  1. Identify the domain

    Your agent parses your message to find which website you want to check.

    get_stats

  2. Fetch the metrics

    The AI calls the tool to grab the specific visitor and pageview data for that domain.

    get_stats

  3. Process the numbers

    The agent organizes the returned data into a format that makes sense for your question.

    get_stats

  4. Deliver the answer

    The AI presents the final traffic stats in your chat window.

    get_stats
