The data you want — referring domains, backlinks, anchor text, a Domain Rating — is right there, just locked behind an export button and a price.

apibacklinks hands you the same signals as one authenticated GET, returning clean JSON from our own crawl of the public web: 2.7 billion links across 181 million domains. Domain Rating and link counts are free and keyless; the heavy backlink and referring-domain lists cost about a tenth of what Guest Post Plugin and the incumbents charge.

The numbers for guestpostplugin.com above come straight from that index — proof it works on the brand you’re comparing. Grab a key, pass ?key=, and you're migrated — with $100 of credit and no monthly minimum waiting on you.
