Feat: DevRank Spider Random Walk Strategy #9032

@tobiu

Description

@tobiu

Enhance the Spider's discovery algorithm to avoid "Filter Bubbles" (repeatedly scanning top repos) and increase coverage.

Strategies to Explore:

  1. Temporal Slicing: Search repositories by random creation date ranges (e.g., created:2022-05-01..2022-05-07) instead of just stars:>1000.
  2. Stargazer Leap: Pick a random indexed user -> fetch their starred repos -> scan those repos.
  3. Dictionary Attack: Search for random keywords/prefixes.

Goal: Ensure diverse discovery of "hidden gem" developers.
