Use this code to display follower count:

<script>
fetch('https://scratchdb.lefty.one/v3/user/info/han614698')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => followerCount = data["statistics"]["followers"]));
</script>

This sets the “followerCount” variable to the number of followers you have.

That works, but

<p>I have <span id="followerCount">(followerCount)</span> followers</p>
<script>
fetch('https://scratchdb.lefty.one/v3/user/info/han614698')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => followerCount = data["statistics"]["followers"]));
</script>

just displays
“I have (followerCount) followers”
not
“I have 226 followers”

You'll have to programmatically change an empty element:

<p id=followerCount></p>
<script>
fetch('https://scratchdb.lefty.one/v3/user/info/han614698')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => followerCount = data["statistics"]["followers"]));
document.getElementById("followerCount").innerHTML = followerCount;
</script>
