Returns one PyPI project: name, version, summary, description with content type, author, maintainer, license, required Python, requirements, classifiers, keywords, project URLs, release files with digests and sizes, known vulnerabilities, ownership and recent downloads. Without version it also lists all releases with upload dates. Names are matched the PyPI way (case and - _ . are equal). Downloads are best effort and left out when unavailable. Unknown projects and releases answer 404. Costs 1 credit per successful request.
