    In the editor, the statistics window shows the # of batches while running the game. How do I get this value through a script? I searched the Unity scripting API and could not find anything.
    Thanks.

    There is, as you found, no API for that. It's only available in the editor.

    Answering my question for those poor souls who run into this: Yes, in the UnityEditor namespace there is a class called UnityStats which has a "batches" property.

    Is there a way to know batch count at runtime in build?

    If you do a debug build you can connect it to Unity and see the batch count through the profiler or the frame debugger.

    We've added ProfilerRecorder in 2020.2a that allows you to get the stats shown in the Rendering Module from code in players. More documentation and details on that are still pending and will come during the alpha/beta cycle.

    Any chance this will be backported to 2019.4 LTS? @MartinTilo

    No. To conserve the stability of LTS, only bugfixes and absolute necessities will be backported. This counts as a new feature and is too involved and risky to backport.

    Yep, the UnityStats class remains unusable in players but we changed the underlying implementation for these stats and exposed them via the ProfilerRecorder API I mentioned above, which we added in the Unity namespace and the Player assembly in 2020.2. With that you can get the stats shown in the Rendering Profiler Module (which are the same as those in the stats view) by their name. Check out the Rendering Profiler Module documentation page for details and example code
