Same issue for my username as well
https://api.github.com/users/myname shows myname as being active. The "updated_at" field shows 2021-11-16. Unless you're counting a 4-month break as being a "ghost account," there's some error.

Edit: And, in case you are counting a 4-month break as a "ghost," I looked up the most prolific GitHub user (according to some list), fabpot, and your site is also showing his name as available.
Aside from that though, this is a neat idea. If you can iron out the kinks you should be on to a really good platform here.
