The reason is alt-metrics. I thought it would be cool to have a little R
package that takes a supplied Bioconductor package name, and compares its
download statistics to the download statistics for all the other
Bioconductor packages, essentially providing a percentile ranking.

this would be very cool!
These counts are currently total downloads, rather than from distinct IPs, and
are grossly inflated. They are based on scrapping web logs and these sometimes
have additional problems. The counts will be updated to distinct IP downloads
(available on individual package pages) in the near future; maybe there will be
some interruptions as that gets implemented.
