There is an endpoint (https://api.chess.com/pub/country/{iso}/players) that returns an array of usernames for active players specific to a country. You could potentially iterate over this array and pass each username to the player profile endpoint at: https://api.chess.com/pub/player/{username} to obtain "status" information.
You should note that by hitting the endpoint for players of a country: "By requesting this list once per day, you will obtain a list of all new registrants and all people who are currently active on Chess.com and identify themselves as being in (or associated with) this country."

Thank you very much for suggestion, but I already tried this method and it did not work, because users who have been banned are not active at the moment and never will be (

It's not possible to do exactly what you want - but there are other things I have done on similar lines.

The issue with that endpoint is that it only gives you active users - not clsoed/banned accounts. So, what I did was to take a list of all active players in a country and then run it after 10 days to show who was banned from that original list. Not ideal but gives you an indication of proportion of cheaters per country
Hi!
I am trying to find a way to get a list of usernames for players who "cheated", but I could not find any good way to do that, so I am asking for your help.
