All of these questions, I believe, can be easily answered with the existing, Algolia-based, HN API. (Though good questions all.) What hind-cite adds is a time-based component. (The existing api shows the end result - number of points, comments, etc. etc.) Just an FYI. I think marrying the two datasets (probably at a client level with two separate calls) would give a pretty complete picture.
