    I asked the Facebook team about this a couple of weeks ago; it seems it was overlooked at the time and they would look into it. I just checked out the Graph API today and it appears to be in there now! Here is a quick way to request the data from the Graph API and have it return a JSON formatted result set:

    If you want just the count of talking about you can use this format:
    https://graph.facebook.com/%5BPageID or Page Name]?fields=talking_about_count

    Examples:

    https://graph.facebook.com/techcrunch?fields=talking_about_count
https://graph.facebook.com/8062627951?fields=talking_about_count

    Returns:

    {
   "talking_about_count": 11937,
   "id": "8062627951"
}

    You can also combine this with other fields:

    https://graph.facebook.com/techcrunch?fields=name,category,likes,talking_about_count

    Returns:

    {
   "name": "TechCrunch",
   "category": "Company",
   "likes": 364886,
   "talking_about_count": 11937,
   "id": "8062627951"
}

    Hope this helps,
