Where does the data owned by DdmrDdmr, LoyceV, and ninjastic.space come from? Is there an API from bitcointalk?

I don't know how LoyceV, and ninjaastic.space collect data but you can fetch topics/posts from pages like unread posts since last visit ---> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=unread
Then all you will do is analyze, collect and organize the data, whether using public.tableau.com or any personal tool.
You will only need to have the IP whitelisting done by admin due to high requests which may be blocked by Cloudflare

This code[1] is old, but it can explain the idea to you.

Some data like trust are weekly updated but it's a good opportunity to tell us how they do that or help who wants to learn how to make data analysis like that.

In simple words those 3 scrape data from bitcointalk (post/reply, users, merits, trust), save it on their servers and offers public api to access those data, well at least ninjastic.space have it[1], i dont know the other two.

Those above-mentioned users are all programmers or developers; they develop their own tools used for specific things.
Those tools are being used to scrape data from the forum, but it requires some kind of approval from the forum administrator (some sort of IP whitelisting) in order to grant their tool access to the data they seek.
 
Those are how I understood it. I am not a programmer either.

I'm curious mate,

I am not an expert in the field of websites. I'm just a blogger
