And even if we could obtain them from the entire mirror network, they would still be worthless. Case in point: I keep my own minicpan mirror, so the download hits my upstream mirror logs from me are worthless. Then there’s also the issue of OS vendors providing packages of Perl modules (Debian, RedHat). Even if we could get those download stats, they would still be meaningless, of course (they don’t actually say anything about how much a module gets used). But that is hypothetical; reality is that you don’t get even as far as that. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>
