Counting in the Arduino isn't the issue, the main issue is extracting the data from YouTube and passing that to Arduino.

James Addison has kindly stepped up to help with that part (thanks James).

Cheers.

Why is making this action be "Increment a counter" or "Set a number"
insufficient? IIRC, Arduinos have a little bit of RAM in them... surely
enough to store a 32 bit int or two. Initialize this number to 0 and
either increment by the number of new views, or just set the number to
the new number of reported views.

Am I oversimplifying the issue?
