Scoring & Ranking
Score each video by:
views→ normalized 0-1 (cap at 10M), weight 0.40likes→ normalized 0-1 (cap at 500K), weight 0.35recency(trending = 1.0 by definition), weight 0.25
python
score = 0.40 * min(views / 10000000, 1.0) + 0.35 * min(likes / 500000, 1.0) + 0.25Classification

|---|---|---|
| ≥ 0.70 | A | MEGA_VIRAL |
| 0.40–0.69 | B | TRENDING |

Edge Cases
- Category not available for country: Some countries only have
n(all). Fall back totype=n. - Stale data: Trending changes throughout the day — data is a snapshot.
- Music/movies category: Returns full songs or trailers — content type differs from regular videos.
- Livestreams in results: isLive=true items are ongoing streams — filter if you need VOD only.
- Country mismatch: gl must be a valid ISO country code (e.g.,
us,gb,de).
