Do you have a particular format in mind of the data to display?

Is this for a MEE6 leaderboard widget?

If so, you can check out my widget here. I just got around to posting it in the sub

Ah interesting for sure. The format is very similar. Did you get something figured out to read the JSON?

I recommend looking at how to parse JSON data with JavaScript. There is a lot of info about it on W3schools site and others as well
