Im currently working on the substrate fees, will get back to this afterwards or when Im blocked. Right now its not working due to the invalid token error I posted above.

Just got back to this. The metrics API endpoint was wrong, it shouldnt wrap the data in json but serve it directly as plain string. This means the basic setup is finished and you can view stats, but I havent started building a proper dashboard yet.

I think the best way to continue with this is to merge and deploy it (specifically the change to metrics endpoint). Then I can connect to a live relayer for testing and building a dashboard. That should be more effective than relying on local test data.
