Here's my list of the top 25, based on the PyPI metadata that I maintain (not rigorously tested, but seems plausible): 6265:setuptools 2371:django 2178:requests 1007:zope.interface 1003:numpy 873:pyyaml 860:lxml 784:simplejson 758:zope.component 734:six 679:flask 678:nose 677:argparse 633:sqlalchemy 569:jinja2 551:python-dateutil 471:zope.schema 456:sphinx 433:pytz 427:mock 414:scipy 405:distribute 396:zc.buildout 364:docopt 363:pil The number against each dependency represents the number of distinct PyPI projects which list the dependency as a run-time requirement (:run: or :meta:). It's possible that some projects declare things as run-time dependencies when they really mean build-time: I'm not sure that there are really over 400 projects which are Sphinx plugins / extensions. Just throwing this out there as it may be of interest.
