No. While tracking this would be interesting, it's not a really high priority for me, as maintainers typically don't consider the popularity of a bug report when considering which bugs to work on (and often, if it's popular enough, it tends to affect someone who cares enough to actually send it a patch or fix the bug directly.) That said, if this is something that strongly interests you, I would certainly accept patches that would introduce a log parser and a method of indicating the popularity of a bug report in the pkgreport pages and status output.
