This is to any of you developers out there... is there any way of seeing how many people have downloaded your module from drupal.org? Beyond that, have you incorporated any way to see how many people are actually using it?
My module gets little attention, very few bug reports... either it's unbelievably good and there are no bugs, or, more likely, not a lot of people are using it.
Trying to decide whether it is worth continuing to support on the site.
Any strategies to share on generating interest in the module? I hate creating a post that says "Hey look at my new module!!!"
Thanks.

Yes
Yes, it would be very interesting to have at least a 'download' count.
Also I think it could be an interesting feature to add, maybe as an option in drupal.module, the capability to post to drupal.org which modules the site uses.
Another option is to have some crawler gather -maybe through xmlrpc, I don't know if it's possible- some statistical information about which modules the Drupal sites listed in drupal.org are using.
This would be a great help focusing development effort, and maybe helps also to include some new modules in the main distribution, or drop some of them from the package.
