Accessing User Rating Information from Steam

My Google-Fu has failed me. I am looking for a way to easily access the user rating system on Steam.

What I have is the User's 64bit SteamID, The user's list of owned games in the form of appids, and access to Steam-Web-Api. I could set up a number of CURL requests to harvest the information from the store, but I am hoping that I can just get it through an API somewhere.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for access this information?

Thanks!!

  • I don't think review information is available in the Web API at the moment.

    What you could do is get the app's store page, for example, http://store.steampowered.com/app/270880, you have the app IDs from the API, and scrape the review numbers from the HTML. This is not future-safe because they will change the layout at some point, but that's how I would do it.
