Sample Usage Of New York Times Most Popular API

Documentation on the use of this api can be found here: http://developer.nytimes.com/docs

Timestest currently scrapes the most popular API and can then build a model of popular authors and their recent, popular articles, and then use this to find the most popular author over the last month, week, or day.

To use this class, import timestest

x = timestest.MostPopularInterface()

x.analyze(timeframe=[1,7,30], calls=[1-50])

timeframe refers to whether you want top authors from the last day, week or month

calls refers to how many batches of atricles to request If calls=10, we will make 10 requests to the mostpopular API, each of which will return the next top 20 articles (after a little bit of offsetting).
