Endpoint Playground
Searches Wattpad's authors by username or name and returns one page: username, display name, bio, avatar, verified flag, published story count and follower count. limit is 1 to 100 (default 20) and offset pages the results. Authors with a private profile or who have opted out of crawling are left out, so a page can hold fewer authors than limit; advance with next_offset.
