Topological phases exhibit a plethora of striking phenomena, including disorder-robust localization and the propagation of waves of various nature. While this physics is actively explored in bosonic and fermionic cases, the topological phases of anyons --- particles with fractional quantum statistics --- are largely uncharted. Here, we unveil the topological transition mediated by the particles' quantum statistics that arises for two-anyon and three-anyon excitations in a one-dimensional array described by the extended Hubbard model. As we demonstrate, the interplay of two-particle interactions and tunneling processes enables topological edge states of anyon pairs whose existence and localization at one or another edge of the one-dimensional system is governed by the quantum statistics of particles. Since a direct realization of the proposed system is challenging, we develop a rigorous method to emulate the eigenmodes and eigenenergies of anyon pairs with resonant electrical circuits.
