Description

[shields.io](http://shields.io) provides nice little badges useful for open source projects. One of the badges is a count of open issues for a github project. It would also be nice if one were available showing the count of rt.cpan.org tickets for a CPAN project.

@obra, does rt.cpan.org have an API making querying the count of open tickets? What is @CPAN-API using?

Research direction

Review the repository's existing issue-count badge implementation, then investigate whether rt.cpan.org or CPAN-API exposes the open-ticket count requested here. The work is done when the API source and badge behavior are defined and the new CPAN ticket-count badge is supported consistently with existing badges.
