Github sort PRs by largest number of files changed

Using GraphQL you can efficiently ask for a repository's list of Pull Requests, how many files they changed, and any other fields you're interested in. Then you can sort that array by changedFiles.

query { 
    repository(owner:"octocat", name:"linguist") {
    pullRequests(first: 100) {
      nodes {
        number
        changedFiles
      }
    }
  }
}

This results in...

{
  "data": {
    "repository": {
      "pullRequests": {
        "nodes": [
          {
            "number": 1,
            "changedFiles": 1
          },
          {
            "number": 2,
            "changedFiles": 2028
          },
          {
            "number": 3,
            "changedFiles": 2
          },
          {
            "number": 4,
            "changedFiles": 1
          },
          {
            "number": 5,
            "changedFiles": 267
          },
          {
