arduino library download stats/logs?

[Phillip Torrone]

hi developer list/arduino,

is there any way to get the number of downloads of libraries? it appears there is "some" data here:

https://www.arduinolibraries.info/

however, there is no way (official?) to see what is being used the most.

looks like arduinolibraries.info is a html version of:

https://downloads.arduino.cc/libraries/library_index.json

github here:

https://github.com/njh/arduino-libraries

so!

since the arduino JSON has download link and the zips are hosted by arduino, are there stats/logs of the downloads?

for example, this is adafruit's, how many downloads does it have?

"repository": "https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_NeoMatrix.git",

      "url": "http://downloads.arduino.cc/libraries/github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_NeoMatrix-1.0.0.zip",

      "archiveFileName": "Adafruit_NeoMatrix-1.0.0.zip",

      "size": 22502,

      "checksum": "SHA-256:ef29612e158e6103e6acc81e349215415145de9241d5b39110a0937dded0533d"

    },

etc.

arduino has the number of downloads of the IDE and users to the site, so this is something that arduino likely has and would be really useful for developers and the community:
