Create a way to pull in total number of "closed" Github issues once per day.

[eunicekokor]

Description

Now that we have a way to look at all the clicked issues from Google Analytics, we want to see some stats about which issues have been closed, by whom, when, etc!

Example

The Github API's response for any issue looks like this. We want to specifically get and store the starred items and maybe other things if they seem to be useful for looking at what the properties of closed issues are!

Other info that will be useful

Moved to other issues
