I have converted all metadata from the Python pickle format to JSON.
The no-recoding optimization is also already in place, so from now on
fetching the full package statistics should be much faster. I did a
little measurements, for example the gcc4core metadata took something
in the order of 3 minutes to download, now they take 40 seconds, and
think the bottleneck was network bandwidth.
