I built a free dashboard to actually make sense of Chrome Web Store stats (no login, no server).

I've been publishing Chrome extensions for a while now, and the stats page in the developer dashboard always feels incomplete. You can download stats as a CSV, but making any sense from them is extremely hard and tedious.

So I built WebstoreStats over a weekend to scratch my own itch. You drop in your CSV exports, and it gives you a real dashboard.

Some stuff it figures out for you:

  • How many people see your extension in search, vs actually click through, vs install. Shows how many people actually convert.

  • Smoothed install trends so you're not squinting at random daily spikes trying to guess if things are going up or down

  • Which countries have good retention, and which ones uninstall fast

  • How quickly users pick up a new version after you push it

  • Whether people are disabling your extension over time

  • What % of people who land on your listing page actually hit install

You can also mark dates when you shipped an update or changed your listing — they show up as lines on the charts, which is super helpful for seeing "did that change actually do anything?"

No login, no server, free forever. It's a static site. Your CSVs get parsed in the browser, and that's it; nothing leaves your browser.

Would love to get feedback and see what more I can add.
