The major ad blocking extensions could do this. They already know about the requests. It's also possible to change the user-agent (say, use the top 10) and quickly gather the data using a bunch of cloud servers.
- tlibert 11y agothis is the biggest issues, depending on the cloud ip block you can get banned.

For example, Ghostery has Ghostrank which is pretty similar to this--it sends back to advertisers what stuff was blocked. https://www.ghostery.com/en/faq/how-does-ghostery-make-money-from-the-add-on/ https://www.ghostery.com/en/faq/how-does-ghostery-make-money...
