At this point, I am really tempted to drop the ‘Widget’ from the name of the plugin, since it is doing so much more now. In addition to grabbing the subscriber numbers for the (main) feed to populate the stats dashboard widget, this plugin now adds entry feed data to the MT interface. And, beyond that, the data is also available as template tags:
- mt:FeedburnerViews
- mt:FeedburnerClicks
The plugin can also track entry feed data for additional feeds beyond the main one, so if your entries show up in more than one feed, you can grab data from those other feeds and get a better overall picture of how your entries are performing.
This version of the plugin requires two things be setup in your Feedburner feed. One, the Awareness API needs to be turned on (check the Publicize tab). Secondly, the PRO stat tracking needs to be turned on (look under services in the Analyze tab). You will also need to be running periodic tasks some how, either by polling activity feeds or by running the tools/run-periodic-tasks script (via cron or whatever).

Standard disclaimers apply. This is still in development. It might destroy your site, etc, etc.
I just wanna thank you for your efforts. Keep the nice work up :-) Waiting to see an update for your analytics widget.
Hi Rayners,
Suddenly, the plugin stopped working for the last 5 days without changing anything on the server or in feedburner. I would like to ask if this is happening with everyone else or is it just me?
Thank you in advance.
