The Data score on TikTok video APIs

This score, out of 100, is the share of an account's videos and video fields that a provider's call returns. We ask for the first page of each account's videos, by the account's handle. Some calls take only the account's ID, so we use the ID there. We count the first 10 videos a call sends and ignore the rest. If an account has fewer than 10 videos, we score every answer against the videos the account has. We check how many of the videos have each field, such as the view count and the cover image. We score each field against the best answer for that account. The best answer is the one with the field on the most videos. Then we average the results over all accounts. Each account counts the same. If the answer has no videos for an account, that account scores 0. We compare a provider that ran on fewer accounts with the other providers on those same accounts. A provider can't score higher by running only on easy accounts. We lower the score when we test the call on fewer accounts than the benchmark has.
