Download Dashboard - Create an API for daily stats

This feature would go on the alternative downloads dashboard:

http://scout-app.io/dashboard/

Set up AWS Lambdas or something so it will run once a day
Have it get the total number of downloads from GitHub's API

Store that data with a timestamp somewhere that can be publicly retrieved. Something like this:

[
{
    "timeStamp": 1479081510000,
    "time": "Sun Nov 13 2016 23:58:30 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time)",
    "total": 282611,
    "sa0": {
        "total": 274291,
        "osdist": {
            "win": 192084,
            "lin32": 0,
            "lin64": 0,
            "osx": 82207
        }
    },
    "sa2": {
        "total": 8320,
        "osdist": {
            "win": 6439,
            "lin32": 104,
            "lin64": 342,
            "osx": 1435
        }
    }
},
{
    "timeStamp": 1479167910000,
    "time": "Sun Nov 14 2016 23:58:30 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time)",
    "total": 282700,
    "sa0": {
        "total": 274291,
        "osdist": {
            "win": 192084,
            "lin32": 0,
            "lin64": 0,
            "osx": 82207
        }
    },
    "sa2": {
        "total": 8409,
        "osdist": {
            "win": 6499,
            "lin32": 105,
            "lin64": 348,
            "osx": 1457
        }
    }
},
{
    "timeStamp": 1479254310000,
    "time": "Sun Nov 15 2016 23:58:30 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time)",
    "total": 282936,
    "sa0": {
        "total": 274291,
        "osdist": {
            "win": 192084,
            "lin32": 0,
            "lin64": 0,
            "osx": 82207
        }
    },
    "sa2": {
        "total": 8645,
        "osdist": {
            "win": 6610,
            "lin32": 115,
            "lin64": 392,

        }
    }
}
]

Create a UI to consume that public route and display a line graph.
Calculate the average downloads a day and display them on the page.

These tasks can be split up and done by different people. It is just a general outline.

TLDR: Get the amount of downloads Scout-App has had from GitHub once a day and store them somewhere. Get that stored data and put it in a UI on the Downloads Dashboard.

To get the data for this, you'll need to hit 3 public API routes from GitHub, parse and combine the data.

Classic Data:
- https://api.github.com/repos/scout-app/scout-app/downloads
Beta Data:
- https://api.github.com/repos/TheJaredWilcurt/scout-app/releases
Modern Data:
- https://api.github.com/repos/scout-app/scout-app/releases

This is already being on the current dashboard page. Some some of that code could be improved or repurposed.

An explanation of what we expect the route to return

[ // Each day is an object in an array to make looping through it easier
    {
        // Unix timestamp from when the data was captured from the APIs (`Date.now()`)
        "timeStamp": 1478451600000,
        // Timestamp in plain English, doesn't have to match this format exactly (`new Date`)
        "time": "Sun Nov 06 2016 16:00:00 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time)",
        "total": 282611,       // Total count for all downloads of Scout-App ever
        "sa0": {
            "total": 274291,   // Total count for all downloads of Scout-App Classic (0.x.x)
            "osdist": {
                "win": 192084, // Total count for all Windows downloads of Scout-App Classic
                "lin32": 0,    // Total count for all Linux 32-bit downloads of Scout-App Classic
                "lin64": 0,    // Total count for all Linux 64-bit downloads of Scout-App Classic
                "osx": 82207   // Total count for all OSX downloads of Scout-App Classic
            }
        },
        "sa2": {
            "total": 8320,     // Total count for all downloads of Scout-App 2
            "osdist": {
                "win": 6439,   // Total count for all Windows downloads of Scout-App 2
                "lin32": 104,  // Total count for all Linux 32-bit downloads of Scout-App 2
                "lin64": 342,  // Total count for all Linux 64-bit downloads of Scout-App 2
                "osx": 1435    // Total count for all OSX downloads of Scout-App 2
            }
        }
    }

Note: I originally wrote this issue as something that should be ran hourly, but in practice I don't see much utility that would be gained in hourly statistics. How many downloads per day is equally as useful and 1/24th the amount of bandwidth when loading the page. After 5 years the JSON payload would be 0.4MB for a daily check, versus 11.4MB for an hourly check. I wouldn't want to wait for 11 MBs to dowload on a phone just to see some stats. If this thing only gets as big as half a meg in 5 years, I think that's doable.

So anyways, daily stats, not hourly.
