Data URLs Here’s where you can find the data

Facebook    http://graph.facebook.com/?ids=YOURURL
Twitter http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=YOURURL
Google  https://clients6.google.com/rpc [see below for JSON-RPC]

Note: Since I’m using “dynamic,” this requires .NET 4.0. Also, I’m using the JavaScriptSerializer class which is officially depreciated, but will probably not actually be removed. You could also easily use Regex to get these simple values.*

int GetTweets(string url) {

    string jsonString = new System.Net.WebClient().DownloadString("http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=" + url);

    var json = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize(jsonString);
    int count = (int)json["count"]; 

    return count;
}

int GetLikes(string url) {

    string jsonString = new System.Net.WebClient().DownloadString("http://graph.facebook.com/?ids=" + url);

    var json = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize(jsonString);
    int count = json[url]["shares"];

    return count;
}

int GetPlusOnes(string url) {

    string googleApiUrl = "https://clients6.google.com/rpc"; //?key=AIzaSyCKSbrvQasunBoV16zDH9R33D88CeLr9gQ";

    string postData = @"[{""method"":""pos.plusones.get"",""id"":""p"",""params"":{""nolog"":true,""id"":""" + url + @""",""source"":""widget"",""userId"":""@viewer"",""groupId"":""@self""},""jsonrpc"":""2.0"",""key"":""p"",""apiVersion"":""v1""}]";

    System.Net.HttpWebRequest request = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest)System.Net.WebRequest.Create(googleApiUrl);
    request.Method = "POST";
    request.ContentType = "application/json-rpc";
    request.ContentLength = postData.Length;

    System.IO.Stream writeStream = request.GetRequestStream();
    UTF8Encoding encoding = new UTF8Encoding();
    byte[] bytes = encoding.GetBytes(postData);
    writeStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
    writeStream.Close();

    System.Net.HttpWebResponse response = (System.Net.HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
    System.IO.Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
    System.IO.StreamReader readStream = new System.IO.StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.UTF8);
    string jsonString = readStream.ReadToEnd();

    readStream.Close();
    responseStream.Close();
    response.Close();

    var json = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize(jsonString);
    int count = Int32.Parse(json[0]["result"]["metadata"]["globalCounts"]["count"].ToString().Replace(".0", ""));

    return count;}
