Get statistics for mempool transactions

Retrieves statistics for transactions in the mempool, such as counts, ages, and fees.

GET
/extended/v1/tx/mempool/stats

Response Body

GET request that returns stats on mempool transactions

TypeScript Definitions

Use the response body type in TypeScript.

tx_type_countsobject

Number of tranasction in the mempool, broken down by transaction type.

Empty Object

tx_simple_fee_averagesobject

The simple mean (average) transaction fee, broken down by transaction type. Note that this does not factor in actual execution costs. The average fee is not a reliable metric for calculating a fee for a new transaction.

Empty Object

tx_agesobject

The average time (in blocks) that transactions have lived in the mempool. The start block height is simply the current chain-tip of when the attached Stacks node receives the transaction. This timing can be different across Stacks nodes / API instances due to propagation timing differences in the p2p network.

Empty Object

tx_byte_sizesobject

The average byte size of transactions in the mempool, broken down by transaction type.

Empty Object
