API function to create entry in metrics?

Submitted by Dave Reid on April 6, 2006 - 4:22am in
Performancing Metrics API

So I'm trying to think of ways to be able to track RSS feeds using the WordPress plugin since there's no practical method of doing so with JavaScript. Is there a way or function that could be made in the API to add a visit to the metrics of a blog?

Basically,
- A WordPress hook is added to when an rss feed is requested
- The hook calls a php function in the plugin which sends a visit info to the API but doesn't output anything to the RSS feed.

Let me know if this is a possibilty. Thanks!

Hmm, interesting idea ..

Thanks Chris. I bet this'll take a lot of consideration to be included in the API, but I'm semi-hopeful.
