Title: Download data science repo metadata from Github API

We talked about wanting to have a real data set to teach with- here's one possibility.

This script downloads the most starred Github repos that include the word 'data science'. API key is not required. The resulting JSON file can be loaded directly into Pandas and manipulated. There are 30 rows and 68 columns, some text and numeric.
