Probably every API from every exchange does that. Just make sure to buffer the price, once every 30 minutes should be fine.

Bitstamp API: https://www.bitstamp.net/api/
Bitstamp websocket API (allows realtime requests): https://www.bitstamp.net/websocket/

Well there is a JavaScript example (this one https://www.bitstamp.net/s/examples/live_trades.html ) you can probably just copy pasta that and itd work fine. Or take it as a base and work from there.
