TASK DESCRIPTION
  Having a way to access the Wikimedia REST API 
(https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/) would be very useful, similar to how MWAPI 
can be accessed. If there is already a way, it is not documented, that I can 
find. Certain analytics data (at least that is my use case) can only be 
accessed from that API.
  
  For example, the `mediarequests` API is different from the `pageviews` prop 
available in the MWAPI, because it allows you to see all global views of a 
given media file in the Wikimedia servers, rather than page views associated 
with the given wiki project. This would pair nicely with a WCQS query, allowing 
you to make queries to get media requests for a certain set of images. (This 
use case might require T244712 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T244712>, if 
there is not a way to generate the server URLs from what is available in the 
query service; if the REST API could take M-ids as well, even better.)
  
  Additionally, the page view data in MWAPI only contains data 60 days back 
from the current date. From the REST API `pageviews` endpoint, you can query 
all historical data, and not just daily. Additionally, you could start from the 
API, to get the entities for the top-viewed pages (`GET 
/metrics​/pageviews​/top​/...`) and display certain data about them.
