At the moment, you can get sticker pack statistics only through the official @Stickers bot via the client interface. In its current form, it is limited and does not make it possible to use it in any way.
How is this useful?
Third-party developers will be able to create tools for a detailed analysis of the use of sticker packs in the form of bots, websites and full-fledged applications. It will be possible to create a rating of sticker packs. It will be easier for users to search for sticker packs.
I am the developer of one of the most popular bots for creating sticker packs (@fStikBot), which is an alternative to the official bot. Hundreds of thousands of satisfied users choose it because it is more convenient, simpler and has more features.
I would like to make it a full-fledged alterative of the official bot. And now I want to give users the opportunity to view the statistics of their sets in a more convenient way than the official one provides. But I can not do it because of the monopoly position.
Also, my friend has already made a prototype of a resource for analyzing the statistics of his sticker packs and rating popular (stickstatbot.pacificescape.su).
But at the moment it cannot fully work, since the user needs to manually send a message from the official bot to collect statistics and compile a sticker rating.
I fully support giving access to bot-making enthusiasts!

I think it's a great feature for Telegram as a flexible platform with so wide field of bots. The only thing left is to let bots handle stickerpacks by their own, avoiding using official Stickers bot, so I'd like to see this feature in nearest botAPI changelogs
