title: Wordpress API to get posts on a specific date
body: <p>I am using Wordpress for a long time and now try to get something out of its API. </p>
  
  <p>I looked at <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/posts/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/posts/</a> and find my desired request is not there: </p>
  
  <p>I want to extract posts posted on the same date (as today) but years back. For example, on Jan 8th 2019, I want to get the posts with the same date (Jan 8th) in previous years. </p>
  
  <p>Now I can do a SQL and select directly from the database but I want to see if an API can do it. </p>
