Perhaps something similar to debian's popcon would allow some basic
statistics to be accumulated without requiring much effort. One metric
would be how many clients have installed the dist (e.g. a hook in the
cpan client or a nightly/weekly crawl of @INC.)
It might also be interesting if there were tool to scan a user's bin
directories and internal projects for dependencies -- a sort of
anonymous darkpan version of is_prereq.
