Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

You can't just assume UTF-8
If you’re actually in a position where you need to guess the encoding, something like “ftfy” <https://github.com/rspeer/python-ftfy> (webapp: <https://ftfy.vercel.app/>) is a perfectly reasonable choice.
But, you should always do your absolute utmost not to be put in a situation where guessing is your only choice.

Is it possible on Python?
Yeah my hunch is that a combination of nltk, python-Levenshtein, numpy for language processing, pandas for gathering results and scrapy for web scraping should make it possible. Sadly such a project probably requires at least a month or two worth of training in Python to prototype. Good luck OP.

Four Useful Python Libraries You Don't Know About
I've used fuzzy-wuzzy and it is pretty slow if you can't install python-Levenshtein (which I couldn't, though I don't remember why). I ended up uninstalling it and using a custom matching algorithm for search in my app.
What are some alternatives?
fuzzywuzzy - Fuzzy String Matching in Python
chardet - Python character encoding detector
jellyfish - 🪼 a python library for doing approximate and phonetic matching of strings.
xpinyin - Translate Chinese hanzi to pinyin (拼音) by Python, 汉字转拼音
TextDistance - 📐 Compute distance between sequences. 30+ algorithms, pure python implementation, common interface, optional external libs usage.
pyfiglet - An implementation of figlet written in Python
Charset Normalizer - Truly universal encoding detector in pure Python
pangu.py - Paranoid text spacing in Python
shortuuid - A generator library for concise, unambiguous and URL-safe UUIDs.
