Is there a way to get a top topic list with different formula multiplier?

I notice there’s a API to get a the top topic list. Discourse API Docs
And I can define what is the “top” list by changing the formula multiplier in the admin panel.

My question is that, is there a way I can query for a different “top” list without changing the parameter in the admin panel?
for example, query for the most likes topic list and most views topic list at the same time.

No that is not possible. The /top route doesn’t accept any parameters like that. Those settings apply sitewide for all users and can’t be customized per request.

I would suggest using multiple Data Explorer queries to get the data you are after:

This Data Explorer query is pretty much identical to the Top page, just with a custom date range and the ability to get current results at the click of a button. You can use this query to see the exact “Top Score” for each topic along with other information about topics filtered by “Top”.

Once the queries are setup, they can be executed via the API.
