Pinterest API get statistic for URL

I am trying to find a way to get statistic for the URL from Pinterest API.

Like facebook graph API: URL Object

Or linked in countserv endpoint:

https://www.linkedin.com/countserv/count/share?format=json&url=https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/breaking-5-major-boolean-syntax-changes-irina-shamaeva

I know it is possible because this site is returning the number of pins for given url:

https://www.sharedcount.com/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2F

Does anyone know how to get these data from Pinterest API?

You can get the number of pins calling this url

http://api.pinterest.com/v1/urls/count.json?callback=&url=http://stylehatch.co

It will return an object like this:

({"count": 0, "url": "http://stylehatch.co"})

There is no officially supported way to do this with the developer API. That said, the widgets use this for the count bubbles using this API

https://widgets.pinterest.com/v1/urls/count.json?url=<url>.

I wouldn't depend on it for anything important tho since it is unsupported and can change/be removed at any time.
