I haven’t seem to find any API endpoints in Discourse API to be able to fetch that data

You can fetch all the report data (well, any data in Discourse) via the API. Check out
> [@Reverse engineer the Discourse API](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-reverse-engineer-the-discourse-api/20576):

> Discourse is backed by a complete JSON api. Anything you can do on the site you can also do using the JSON api. The API is documented at [docs.discourse.org](https://docs.discourse.org). You can also use the [discourse\_api](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_api) Ruby gem as a client library. However, not every endpoint is documented. To determine how to do something with the JSON API here are some steps you can follow. Example: recategorize a topic. Go to a topic and start editing a category: Open Chrome dev tools, switch to the Network tab, select …
For the report data, you can just add `.json` to the URL. For example `/admin/reports/topics.json?end_date=2020-01-26&start_date=2019-12-26` will get you all the data for the topics report.
