[Catalog-sig] download statistics / naming

[holger krekel]

hi folks, 

i am wondering if there are download statistics 
for packages downloaded through PyPI?  

If not, then it would be a great feature IMHO. 

cheers, 

    holger

P.S.: On the naming front, i actually like the suggestion 
      of PYCAN a lot. It has a number of useful connotations 
      like CPAN, can of snakes, the prefix PY signalling python 
      stuff, and the statement "Python is able to" etc.pp. 

      Whatever name you choose, i recommend to fix it ASAP. 
      I have just written an article for a 50000 readers 
      magazine (about Pycon) which is going to have 
      PyPI mentioned and i expect the mindshare for the
      project to increase in general due to the new 
      facilities ...
