I was searching the same thing and found a API endpoint which returns the userid. The point is to convert that user id (which is a number) to base36.

API: https://i.instagram.com/api/v1/users/web_profile_info/?username=

You need to add X-IG-App-ID to the header. You can find it in any Instagram web api request. You can find the id inside user>id

Then convert to base36. Ex: UserId: 1511897692, uid: p057q4
