As a side note, a very useful metric would be (mostly for libraries / components / frameworks, I guess) the number of projects that bundle a given application i their distribution. I have no idea how this could be gathered, though. Maybe checksumming every file and especially the directory listings (file names + sizes), and comparing them across projects? [Less]
