Stats & Averages API Documentation

Third party services and your own platform can access average fraud rates, total devices, and total page views based on the optional custom variables that are passed such as "userID", "transactionID", etc. This API makes it easy to retrieve average fraud rates so your platform can perform the necessarily business logic to mitigate any potential risk.

General Notes:

Any custom tracking variable established in your account's custom tracking variables that is passed as part of your original API lookup requests can be searched by simply being attached to the stats API request, such as "userID" and "transactionID" in the example below. These variables are completely optional so you may remove them from the API request.
The "country" variable is accepted in the 2 letter country code format.
"start_date" and "end_date" are accepted in "YYYY-mm-dd" format.
"ConversionStatus" can be attached to the request to search by leads that have received postback notices. The 3 options for "ConversionStatus" are "true" (converted), "false" (denied) and "not_marked" (default status).
