I think we need to step back from the "how" for a moment in order to better understand the "why". RhinosF1, what is the original question that you are really asking that resulted in your original request? It may be that there are other ways to answer your question than to obtain those

It doesn't look like Active Editors works for all wikis. I think you'd have to merge activity across all wikis to get a stat like that. I'm not sure I know of a good data strategy to get that. If you were to query it with quarry, you'd need to write a query for every wiki and then write some
