I'm working with some faculty members studying public health and social media. I'd like to be able to insert a number of YouTube URLs to videos I do not own and pull the public stats (views, likes/dislikes, video length, owner, comment count). It seems that the API options require that you own the videos to get any of this data.I've got a way to do most of what I need through xpath but want to make sure I'm not missing something obvious in the API.
