Is there any stats on how widely Expect is used in test
automation? My impression is that Expect was popular 10
years ago, now many companies are replacing it with
JCAT, Python, etc.. Is that really the overall picture?

I had not heard of JCAT so I googled it. Based on the search results...
I guess that it is not a hugely popular test automation tool.
Expect is a tool for automating interactive textual interfaces.
As far as I know for that particular problem Expect is the best solution.
Sorry I don't have stats.
Sincerely,
