There are at least a few other popular package managers including NPM and Cargo that provide statistics on package downloads, etc.

Does Nimble support any sort of similar statistics?

It doesn't. In order to get these stats we either need to add logging to Nimble or create a centralised infra.

OK. That makes sense.

Please also keep in mind that counting downloads is not very meaningful for languages using statically compiled libraries: often CI systems pull them on every build.
