The Data score on Google Play APIs: This score, out of 100, shows how much of an app's Google Play page a provider's call returns. We call each provider and ask for the app by the app's package name. For each app, we count the parts the answer held, such as the price and the screenshots. We divide the number of parts the answer held by the number of parts we count for the app. We say an app has a part when any live provider's answer held that part. We count a part when the app's Google Play page shows that part. We read the app's Google Play details page in the US store within 4 minutes of calling the providers. We count each part from any provider's answer when fewer than two live providers found the app. We check each value against the app's Google Play page. A value that doesn't match the app's Google Play page counts as missing. For a part made of items, such as screenshots, we count the items in the answer. We count only the items that match the app's Google Play page. We divide the matching items by the most items any provider or the app's Google Play page showed. Then we average the results over all apps. Each app counts the same. An app the call didn't find counts as 0. We compare a provider that ran on fewer apps with the other providers on those same apps. A provider can't score higher by running only on easy apps. We lower the score when we test the call on fewer apps than the benchmark has.
