Description

There's about 500 packages there in the [PEAR](https://pear.php.net/) format: https://pecl.php.net/package-stats.php

Not sure if there's an API or if we'll need to scrape html from the website

Research direction

Start by examining how this API service supports other package ecosystems, then investigate PECL's package-stats page and whether it exposes an API. Define the metadata that should be imported from the roughly 500 PEAR-format packages and verify that PECL package support works through the service's existing package and version metadata behavior.
