I agree it should be changed. Perhaps there could be a global option
that gives the previous behavior. The global option would be
deprecated after a while but in the interim it would give package
developers a change to move over and to try it under both definitions.

Beyond what Gabor said, I might download a package that uses "zoo", then
use "zoo" directly in other contexts without ever downloading it
directly. Total downloads would capture that; top level downloads
would not. The flip side is that a package that requires "zoo" may only
use it for featu
Perfect - thanks!

Well, I think "discriminates" is a bit over the 'top'. It just measures
something else. No statistic is going to be the One True Popularity Statistic.
Downloads, Unique IPs and Top level downloads all measure different aspects of
popularity.

That's what I'm currently using, but I'm concerned about the
performance implications - won't that create a copy of x?

Thank you all for the interesting discussion.

administrators to come up with a solution that works for them. We do not plan

I agree. I was arguing that sorting by that value wasn't very useful.

I've spoken with Stefan Theussl (cran maintainer) about this, and he's

I'm seeking feedback (good, bad or indifferent) in regards to
