Is anyone aware of a way to pull the current/longest streak for a GitHub user, besides parsing their page's HTML? I'm aware that I can get the data used to make the dot chart from https://github.com/users/sferik/contributions_calendar_data but that always gives 366 points.
Previously, I thought the Current and Longest Streak counts were dynamically calculated from the given JSON data, but this shows that's not the case: it looks like GitHub is inserting those counts right into the HTML on their end.
I can scrape those counts out of the HTML if I need to, but that feels pretty hacky, and I'd prefer to pull or calculate them in some other way if it's at all possible.
