[[http://sphinx.pocoo.org/|Sphinx]] has support for putting an up-to-date Download link in your website using that JSON with one simple "[[https://bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/sphinx-contrib/src/26c8b46f3f3d/cheeseshop/|pypi-release]]" directive. This retrieves information about the latest stable release (using [[http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0386/|PEP 386]] ordering, falling back on older distutils ordering where packages are not PEP 386 compliant.) If you wish to retrieve information about a specific release you may use

 . `http://pypi.python.org/pypi/<package_name>/<version>/json`

You can use this to automatically generate a link to the latest release of your package with (assuming use of jQuery):

{{{
<span id="release_info" class="note">Download:
  <a href="http://pypi.python.org/pypi/roundup">latest</a></span>
<script type="text/javascript">
 $.getJSON('http://pypi.python.org/pypi/roundup/json?callback=?', function(data) {
     h = 'Download: ' + data.info.version;
     for (var i=0, url; url=data.urls[i]; ++i) {
       h += '<br><a href="' + url.url + '">' + url.filename + '</a>';
     }
     $('#release_info').html(h);
 });
</script>
