Retrieve a player by rank #315

Website and apps like osuskills, tillerino, osudaily and many more already do that, but indirectly, they leech data left and right from the api to do their business.

I'm making a bot called Cake, basically Tillerino, and I noticed all websites use data leeching & web scrapers to retrieve rank ladder & player's rank.

Adding this ironically would save osu on data bandwidth. Instead of leeching & scraping tons of data we could get what we want directly.

I saw I was editting, this is an ongoing issue that has tons of duplicate. I checked osu-web at first because osu-dev discord doesn't have #osu-api so I expected there wasn't a git only for osu-api either.
