Not video views but how many people have viewed my channel.

I'm pretty sure you can't do that anymore. You could do it on the old channel design, but youtube forced everyone to use the old one, so now you can't.

Urm yep. What he said above me. Youtube has removed that function. API's can still get you that info if your a developer. Try this:


$video_ID = 'your-video-ID';

$JSON = file_get_contents("https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/{$video_ID}?v=2&alt=json");

$JSON_Data = json_decode($JSON);

$views = $JSON_Data->{'entry'}->{'yt$statistics'}->{'viewCount'};

echo $views;

?>



Most people arn't, so maybe a site that access's your API's. Try this:

1) Go here:

http://socialblade.com/youtube/

2) Under channel search, Enter your channel name (any channel name for that matter), and click [Search].

3) Colum 4, is channel views.

----------

NOTE: If channel was recently added (like your channel), it takes a few days before averages, goals, ranks, views, etc are displayed.

-----------

Hope this helps :~)

I don't think that feature is present on youtuvbe channels yet. So that means you will not know many views you got!
