I'd like to recreate the information block returned when performing a user search using REST. Before I run off and spend a lot of time figuring out all of the calls needed, I figured I ask to see if anyone else had successfully created something similar.
The goal is to provide an off domain service that allows a community user ID to be looked up and have all of the 'pertinent' information displayed.

Here is and example of the user search REST call you can make:
http://yourcommunity.com/restapi/vc/search/users?q=test
If the results of that call do not return enough information, you can use the "href" parameter of each user object in the results to make another call to get the info for that user -- something like this:
http://yourcommunity.com/restapi/vc/users/id/525
Thanks for the nudge in the right direction.
It looks like I can get everything except page views from the following calls:
The only thing I can't seem to recreate is the "Page Views" number.
I've tried adding these and the resulting number does not match:
User: /views/boards/style/all/count
User: /views/boards/style/blog/count
User: /views/boards/style/forum/count
User: /views/boards/style/idea/count
User: /views/posts/style/all/count
User: /views/topics/style/blog/count
User: /views/topics/style/idea/count
Is there a user REST call that provides the same "Page Views" number?
Thanks.

For page views, you can get the page_views user metric:
/restapi/vc/users/id/<user id>/metrics/name/page_views
/restapi/vc/users/login/<user login>/metrics/name/page_views
You need to have the "Update communities" permission to view metrics.
