# Datasets - Python SDK

The Python SDK and docs are currently in beta.
Report issues on [GitHub](https://github.com/OpenRouterTeam/python-sdk/issues).

## Overview

Datasets endpoints

### Available Operations

* [get\_rankings\_daily](#get_rankings_daily) - Daily token totals for top 50 models

## get\_rankings\_daily

Returns the top 50 public models per day by total token usage on OpenRouter, plus a
single aggregated `other` row per day that sums every model outside that top 50.
Token totals are `prompt_tokens + completion_tokens`, matching the public rankings
chart on openrouter.ai/rankings.

Each row is a distinct `(date, model_permaslug)` pair. The `other` row uses the
reserved permaslug `other` and is always returned last within its date, so callers
can compute `top-50 traffic / total daily traffic` without a second request.

Authenticate with any valid OpenRouter API key (same key used for inference).
Rate-limited to 30 requests/minute per key and 500 requests/day per account.

When republishing or quoting this dataset, OpenRouter must be cited as:
"Source: OpenRouter (openrouter.ai/rankings), as of \{as\_of}."

Token counts come from each upstream provider's own tokenizer (Anthropic counts
are as reported by Anthropic, OpenAI counts are as reported by OpenAI, etc.), so
a token in one row is not directly comparable to a token in another row from a
different provider.

### Example Usage

```python
from openrouter import OpenRouter
import os

with OpenRouter(
    http_referer="<value>",
    x_open_router_title="<value>",
    x_open_router_categories="<value>",
    api_key=os.getenv("OPENROUTER_API_KEY", ""),
) as open_router:

    res = open_router.datasets.get_rankings_daily()

    # Handle response
    print(res)

```
