This function returns the overall ranking (in the US AppStore) for any iPhone App.

<?php

/*
$id = 9 digit number

You can find the App ID on the URL to the AppStore, for example awesomefactsapp.com link is the following:
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=309526865&mt=8

So in this case, the $id would be 309526865.
*/
function AppStore($id)
{
   
$result = file_get_contents('http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewTop?id=25204&popId=30', false, stream_context_create(json_decode('{"http":{"method":"GET","header":"X-Apple-Store-Front: 143441-1","user_agent":"iTunes\/4.2 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.2)"}}', true)));

    if (
preg_match_all('~>(\d+)\.<.*?viewSoftware\?id=(\d+)&.*?draggingName="(.*?)"~s', $result, $matches) > 0)
    {
       
$result = array_search($id, $matches[2]);

        if (
$result !== false)
        {
           
$result++;

            echo
'<h2>"' . $matches[3][$result - 1] . '" is ranked #' . $result . ' overall in the US.</h2>';
        }

        return
$result;
    }

    return
false;
}
?>





Usage example:
<?php
var_dump
(AppStore(309526865))); // returns the rank or false if the App is not in the Top 100.
?>
