NetworkX >=3.0 breaks pagerank

[willu47]

From version 3 of NetworkX, PageRank was made a private function, so it is no longer accessible to the AuthorRank library causing the following error:

Thanks for opening the issue @willu47.

The requirements.txt states that NetworkX version 2.6.3 must be used for AuthorRank. That said, the issue is noted for future development work.
