Get Akismet statistics is a WordPress ability from Akismet — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get Akismet statistics
Read-onlyRetrieve Akismet's spam-blocking statistics for your site, including spam and ham counts, accuracy, and time saved.
Requires the Akismet plugin (v5.7+) on WordPress 6.9+, with a configured Akismet API key. Both abilities require the current user to have the 'moderate_comments' capability, and are only exposed over MCP when the 'akismet_enable_mcp_access' option is enabled.
What it does
This ability fetches spam protection statistics from the Akismet API for a chosen time interval (the last 6 months, the last 60 days, or all time). It returns totals for spam comments blocked, legitimate ('ham') comments approved, missed spam, and false positives, along with an overall accuracy percentage and an estimate of the time saved by Akismet blocking spam automatically. It also includes a monthly breakdown of the same metrics. If the Akismet API call fails, an error is returned instead of stats.
