I've seen all the stat calculators and listings (such as Runehead clan listings). How do these get their info from the database of hiscores?

 

 

 

They obviously don't have direct access to the database, so what do their scripts do to get the listed hiscores?

 

 

 

TIA

They use to parse the same html page you view normally, removing the html and manipulating it untill they could extract the information they wanted. Jagex recently released a lite hiscores page for those project to use, making it much easier for the fan projects and much lighter on the bandwidth bill for both sides.
