I love awesome lists and I recently noticed that one of my projects was mentioned in an Awesome list. To promote Awesome I looked for a badge to show that I'm proud to be mentioned. The only Awesome badge is for lists. I'm looking for a badge for being mentioned in a list.

Looking at Shields.io there wasn't such a thing, but the available API made the following possible:

Like it.

Small advantage of using Shield.io is that it can be postfixed with the awesome-list name, e.g.

@jerone That badge looks way too long though, and would be even longer for most other awesome lists, which have longer names than userscripts. Better to just say awesome and rather link it to the specific list.
