Fetches Lagos Life’s headline numbers right now: players online and all-time visits; the player homes on the map (total, online, at home, and counts by home type with area and city); billboards (boards with ads, empty boards, live ads and their weekly ₦ value); the Sea Plots ad wall (ads, plots used and on hold, weekly ₦ value); the election (candidates, total votes, leader and their vote share); and the number of verified players. A small summary — the records behind it are in the other Lagos Life endpoints. Takes no parameters. Only publicly available data is returned.

I want to make an API call to /v1/lagos-life/stats. Here are the details:
Endpoint: GET https://api.scraperize.com/v1/lagos-life/stats
Description: Fetches Lagos Life's headline numbers right now: players online and all-time visits; the player homes on the map (total, online, at home, and counts by home type with area and city); billboards (boards with ads, empty boards, live ads and their weekly ₦ value); the Sea Plots ad wall (ads, plots used and on hold, weekly ₦ value); the election (candidates, total votes, leader and their vote share); and the number of verified players. A small summary — the records behind it are in the other Lagos Life endpoints. Takes no parameters. Only publicly available data is returned.
Required Headers:
- x-api-key: Your API key
Parameters:
- cache_max_age (select): Optional. Return a cached result if one this age or newer exists — served for **0 credits** with `meta.cached=true` and `meta.cachedAt`. Otherwise a fresh scrape runs (**1 credit**) and refreshes the cache. Omit to always scrape fresh.
Example Response:

"homeName": "Mansion",
"area": "Banana Island",
"city": "lagos",
"count": 170
}
]
},
"billboards": {

"plotsHeld": 7563,
"weeklyValueNgn": 10666500
},
"election": {
"candidates": 200,

"leader": "quantum",
"leaderVoteShare": 0.2876
},

"cached": false
}
}
Please help me write code in my preferred programming language to make this API call and handle the response appropriately. Include error handling and best practices.
