Does this also round? I'm not very familiar with these and can't tell where the number of downloads is rounded.

This code will just truncate the number instead of rounding to the nearest million (eg. 5,999,999 downloads would become be 5 million). I can make it round instead, if preferred

Truncating is probably fine, rounding might be better if easy.

I just changed it to round instead of truncate, but I've also just realized that the README says "over 10 million total downloads," so it might be a bit misleading to round? I'm not sure how important that is, but figured it's worth mentioning
Makes the regex match look for the exact same string as sed does. Probably won't actually matter, but doesn't hurt to do.

Currently, it's set up to run daily.
