// Get traffic report for a listing
const report = await mcp.useTool('analytics_getTrafficReport', {
  dimension: 'LISTING',
  metric_keys: ['CLICK_THROUGH_RATE,LISTING_IMPRESSION,LISTING_VIEWS'],
  start_date: '2024-01-01',
  end_date: '2024-01-31'
});

console.log(`Total Impressions: ${report.records[0].listing_impression}`);
console.log(`Total Views: ${report.records[0].listing_views}`);
console.log(`Click-Through Rate: ${report.records[0].click_through_rate}%`);
```

Monitor your performance metrics to maintain Top Rated Seller status.

console.log(`Late Shipment Rate: ${standards.lateShipmentRate}%`);
console.log(`Cases Closed Without Resolution: ${standards.casesClosedWithoutResolution}%`);
