I'm trying to use the reputation API to get the recent reputation delta for a given user. For example, looking at recent entries for /2.2/users/21539/reputation
, one has:
{
on_date: 1447018487,
reputation_change: 2600,
vote_type: "up_votes",
post_type: "answer",
post_id: 303231,
user_id: 21539
}
It's showing a huge reputation change of 2600 for this answer, which is the total reputation gain since the answer was written in 2008 (10 x 260). Instead, I expected it to be just 10, for the upvote that happened on that one day.
Or am I misunderstanding the semantic of this field? If so, how would I get the recent delta, as is displayed on the reputation tab for a user?
