Obtaining Facebook Likes for Multiple Users using FQL

Question

I'm trying to replicate the results of the graph api call:

graph.facebook.com/[fbid]/likes

using FQL so that I can obtain the likes of multiple people using a single call. Anyone know if this is possible / how to do it?

Hmmm, having a quick look on FB documentation..it seems that the method provided can actually give you a list of users who liked an object! which is exactly the opposite...it seems that you can't even get the likes of a single user! — ifaour, Jan 25 '11 at 22:24
Actually the method above can be used either with a user fbid to get a list of their likes or with an object id to get a list of the users that like the object — MZamkow, Jan 27 '11 at 22:23

You can use SELECT page_id,name FROM page WHERE page_id IN (SELECT page_id FROM page_fan WHERE uid in (....). Hope this was helpful. I found the answer in this discussion. Since this was one of the first pages I came across, I thought I should link it to the answer

FQL can supposedly support multiqueries. Check out this page: FQL Multiquery

which says:

"query2":"SELECT name, url, pic FROM profile WHERE id IN (SELECT uid FROM #query1)"

Yes but unfortunately the user_id field of the "likes" fql table is not indexable. – MZamkow Aug 02 '11 at 04:58
