Download counts?
I'm continually asked how many downloads of Tapestry there are ...
really, how many users.
I realize that this is a difficult question to answer, due to the use
of mirrors for downloads ... even so, is there any way to get this
number? Estimate it? Guess it?

No; I believe it will be hard to impossible to do, as those mirrors are
independent entities and might not want anybody messing with theirs log files.
As it is, numbers are useful to see project growth (decline), but they are not
correct as absolute download numbers are.

So low can be very good, as it means people are using the mirrors.
Ever looked into getting logs from the mirrors Vadim?
