SocialBlade Stats Scraper

What this Actor scrapes

SocialBlade tracks creator/channel growth across YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and TikTok, but its own UI only shows one profile at a time with no export. This Actor fetches SocialBlade's own profile data for a list of handles or channel IDs across all four platforms in one run, returning subscriber/follower counts, view counts, content counts, SocialBlade's letter grade, platform/category/country ranks, and a 15-day daily growth history — one normalized row per creator. It does not scrape SocialBlade's Estimated Monthly/Yearly Earnings figures — those numbers load client-side after the page hydrates and aren't present in the data we parse, so we don't fabricate them. What you get instead is broader multi-platform coverage and growth history in one pass, not a single earnings guess.

What we handle for you

• 🛡️ Browser fingerprint rotation — curl-cffi impersonates real Chrome / Firefox / Safari TLS handshakes so SocialBlade sees a browser, not Python.
• 🌐 Residential proxy rotation via Apify Proxy — fresh session and exit IP on every block.
• 🔁 Retries with exponential backoff on 408 / 429 / 5xx — up to 5 attempts per page, Retry-After honoured.
• 🧱 Rate-limit-aware pacing and per-target fault isolation — a bad handle or missing profile is skipped and logged, and we back off instead of hammering SocialBlade, so one bad target never fails the whole run.
• 🧊 Clean, typed dataset rows — Pydantic-validated, ISO-8601 timestamps, stable IDs, JSON / CSV / Excel export straight from the Apify Console.
• 💰 Pay-Per-Event pricing — you only pay for results that land in your dataset. No data, no charge.

Use cases

• Cross-platform creator benchmarking — compare a creator's YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and TikTok stats side by side, something SocialBlade's own UI can't do in one pass.
• Influencer-marketing agency shortlists — pull follower counts, SocialBlade grades, and ranks for a batch of candidate creators before outreach.
• Growth tracking — snapshot the 15-day daily history to spot creators trending up or down.
• Competitive research — monitor a competitor's or client's channel stats over time.

Input
