Get Stream Stats

No stats returned when stream offline
You should only call the endpoint when your stream's status is online, otherwise, it'll return an error.

Sample response when getting the stats of an offline stream:

{
    "statusCode": 404,
    "error": "Not Found",
    "message": "Stream not found in upstreams."
}
