Hi,
Just wanted to tell you that I used your Idea in https://github.com/akamhy/waybackpy. [commit]

Usage :

pip3 install waybackpy
waybackpy --url akamhy.github.io --user_agent "my-user-agent" --known_urls

Output:

http://akamhy.github.io
https://akamhy.github.io/favicon.ico
https://akamhy.github.io/robots.txt
https://akamhy.github.io/waybackpy/
https://akamhy.github.io/waybackpy/assets/css/style.css?v=a418a4e4641a1dbaad8f3bfbf293fad21a75ff11
https://akamhy.github.io/waybackpy/assets/css/style.css?v=f881705d00bf47b5bf0c58808efe29eecba2226c
6 URLs found and saved in ./akamhy.github.io-6-urls.txt

Flags:

1. '--alive' will only fetch URLs that are not dead. alive will be slower for websites with too many archived URLs e.g. google
2. '--subdomain' will include URLs from subdomains.
