Real lifetime popularity

Hi, I am a newbie to your api so excuse me if I couldn't find the answer in your forums. I am wondering to get a real lifetime popularity of a movie but I have problems with below: -The popularity variable is the popularity from the previous day so it is possible a hype but low rated movie can be on top of the list while sorting based on popularity variable. -The vote_count variable is about the lifetime hype of a movie but again a low rated movie can be on top of the list. -The vote_average variable show the top rated movie but it is possible that the movie has been voted by one person as 10 but it does not mean much.
So for me, to calculate the real lifetime popularity, we have to multiply vote_count and vote_average (with minor arrangements to the calculation) so that it can give us very much voted and well rated movie mixture. I have used it for my calculation clientside but I can only tweak the result with the 20 movies that I have received.
Is there any way in your api that I can use such calculation in mind? Because right now, it doesn't give me the top legendary movies ever filmed.
Thanks

Hi @byerdelen
There is nothing like this right now and I can think about adding something like this in the future but it would be fairly low on my priority list. If you want something like this locally, you'll have to bring the data down yourself and calculate it. Popularity is indeed, only intended to be a trending score, largely based on the date and not lifetime.

But as much as I know I can get only 20 movies at once so sorting through entire database is not realistic for now.
Thanks for your answer.
