GET/api/v1/live_audience

Top viewers currently in a live stream (the online-audience ranking, by contribution). Pass a room_id from /top_live or /live_room.

Parameter		Description
`room_id`	required	TikTok live room id (get one from /room_id by username).
`anchor_id`	optional	The streamer's user id (improves accuracy; optional).
`format`	optional	Omit for the raw ranks (default). Use `clean` for a trimmed top-viewers list (rank, username, score, followers).
