Hypixel
The Hypixel API serves player, guild, and SkyBlock profile data for the Hypixel Network, the largest Minecraft server by player count. Access requires a free key generated in-game via the /api command on a linked Mojang/Microsoft account, applied per-key rate limits, and JSON responses over HTTPS; this sandbox's requests were themselves bot-challenged, but a live header probe still returned Hypixel's normal `access-control-allow-origin: *` on the actual v2 endpoints, confirming the API itself is up and CORS-enabled.
