Hmmmm . . . That would def work. We could also probably implement this in python with requests. This would allow us to run update commands to grab new data with the bot.

We could also parse the HTML (if needed) with beautiful-soup like I did in https://github.com/Ian-Boraks/BestBuy-Stock-Checker-Test-Python

import requests

def get_leaderboard(url: str) -> dict:
    """Gets the leaderboard from the given URL"""
    response = requests.get(url)
    if response.status_code != 200:
        raise Exception("Failed to get leaderboard")
    return json.loads(response.text)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Test the function
    url = "https://www.velocidrone.com/leaderboard_as_json2/0/6/888/1.16"
    print(get_leaderboard(url))
