1.I need to know more about the foursquare mayor apis. Is it returning a user's particular day's mayorship details? How can i get the user's current venue details in which the user is the mayor of that venue?
You can make a venues detail call and look at the mayor field that's returned. This will be the current mayor of the venue.

Does the Foursquare API allow us to pull reviews and then allowing the verified location to respond to it?
I am just wondering if the API allows access to reviews and pulling those sets of data.
Thanks
Foursquare doesn't have reviews per se. They call them tips, and you can get them via the API for a specific venue or user -> https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/venues/tips
I am trying to get the users info for the people who checked in for a venue
Is there any API endpoint to get the atleast the basic info of the users who checked in for a venue
Thank You
In a venue detail request, if your users have auth'd through Foursquare, you can see their friends that have been there. Your app can see users currently at a venue if 1) one of your auth'd users just checked in there, or 2) your users are a manager of that venue.
These should give you some "mini" or compact user responses and to get more data, you can make a user detail request
i want to get details of venue to users likes by user id.
i have UserId and user likes different venue. by this UserId i want to get details of venue in which user likes.
for example: i m user and i likes a venue in any city. now by my UserId i want to get details of that venue which i likes.
Is it possible by any query or foursquare API?
can i do something in this
https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/venues/likes.
If I can understand your question correctly, you want to find the venues a user likes?
That is not possible however, you can retrieve the likes for a particular venue.
For eh: If you make that query to a particular venue then it will return your friends who like that venue and the count of other people who like that venue.
My script is currently monitoring the hereNow value for a couple of venues. When working with this data, though, I do not want to count the same checkins twice; when a user checks into a venue, after how long does this checkin expire?
The hereNow count reflects the number of users currently checked in at a venue. Polling the hereNow count of a venue to determine the number of unique users who check in at a venue is not recommended, and will not work reliably. If you are the manager of the venue, you can use the venue manager API, or the venue push API to get reliable data about how many users have checked in at the venue.
Is there a way to become a manager of a venue just for development purposes, without having to complete all the steps of claiming a venue? Maybe by creating a false venues and be manager of it?
For the Venue Push API, you can create a "home" venue and will automatically be treated as the manager of that venue.
For specials/stats, create a test venue and either go through the claim flow for the venue, or e-mail api#foursquare.com and with the venue ID and your user ID, asking them to claim the venue for you.
