To convert the star visual light on a single wave length is an easy way to
get the photons number range.
It is because for the same energy, the lower the frequency, the higher the
photons number.
(E=hv)

For the energy spectrum a star has to be considering like a hot blackbody.
For a like the sun star, the integrated energy is 1.36 kW / m^2 outside the
Earth's atmosphere.
The solar energy seen by the eye is roughly 0.6 KW / m^2.
