There's still actually quite a bit of activity around Groovy (2.0 is
imminent with many enhancements), but it is overshadowed by Grails, which
is extremely active. Since the two are tightly linked (you use Groovy to
build Grails apps), looking at *only* Groovy activity may be misleading.
Probably
The best description of Groovy I have heard came from Todd Sharp -
'I't like cfscript all growed up'

Another very common description is it's what Java would have been if Java

Part of it may also be that there are now so many JVM languages that growth
is spread out across a much wider range than any other platform.
If you're interested, some of the sweet new stuff in 2.0 is detailed here:

Groovy is by far the best all-around programming *language* I have ever run
into. It doesn't have all the built-in extras that CF does, but CF is
actually a platform, not just a language. But in my opinion (and I may get
flak for saying it), in terms of language elegance and power, Groovy blows

I quite like Groovy as well - although unfortunately it doesn't look like

While it has a following, from my research, it seems to have kinda
stagnated in it's community growth, in favour of some other JVM based
languages.

I used Groovy years ago. I remember reading something interesting in
one of the books. Something to the effect that simple tasks like

could simply that.
Yeah...that idea probably wouldn't ever fly.
