Right now, every time the scraper is run, the entire database is wiped, and recreated from scratch.

In the unlikely chance that the scraper misses a user for some reason, that user is completely deleted from the database.

Scraper should be more intelligent about this.

If a user is added, add the user.
If a user is deleted—and not simply missing because of an HTTP or parsing error—remove them.
Same with individual user data points.
