I'm looking for a script that can notify a user about posts (by others) that include a link to their profile or any of their posts. Does one exist?

Not possible wit the API due to quota limitations. Use the Stack Exchange Data Explorer.– Brock AdamsCommented Feb 24, 2014 at 21:39

1You could probably do this with a combination of search for profile links and /questions/{ids}/linked.– Bill the LizardCommented Feb 25, 2014 at 2:58

@BrockAdams is this still not possible?– TimCommented May 14, 2015 at 15:57

@Tim, Something that's "close enough" might be doable on lower traffic sites. Pretty sure it will still bust quota on sites like Stack Overflow for at least some users -- especially when polling is factored in.– Brock AdamsCommented May 14, 2015 at 22:08
