Don't think an API key is necessary to get player counts

You can use a lot of these as well

just not anything that has the requirement of "Steamworks Web API publisher authentication key" unless you have one of those, but most Steam users wouldn't

Thank you so much for this info, do you know what language these are written in? Like HTML or Php
-thx

It is a web api - so you would use any language that can make an http request
(just like a browser).
Try a free web api tester like talend api tester (browser extension) to see the results
