Feature request: Counter for search results

[vierkantemeter]

I would like to have a counter placeholder which counts the number of found tweets when using TwitterX in search mode. I'm trying to code it myself, but I've not made any progress. I see it should be possible with the API (https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/search/tweets).

If you have any spare time left, I am forever grateful ;)

I'll still trying to code it myself. If I made any progress, I will let you know.

I've managed to create a counter. It works outside of TwitterX.

<span class="tweet" data-url="[[++site_url:urlencode]][[~[[*id:urlencode]]]]">
    <span class="count">0</span>
</span> reactions on Twitter.

And call this javascript:

jQuery(document).ready(function($){

    /* tweet count */
    var API_URL = "http://cdn.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json";

    $(".tweet").each(function() {
        var elem = $(this);   
        var url = encodeURIComponent(elem.attr("data-url"));

        // Get count and set it as the inner HTML of .count
        $.getJSON(API_URL + "?callback=?&url=" + url, function(data) {
            elem.find(".count").html(data.count);
        });
    });
});

Although it's forbidden to call the count.json this way, it works. But I don't know for how long..
