Is there a simple way to discover the answer to questions like "how many packages are on Hackage?" or "how many downloads per day does Hackage serve?" Or is this information not posted anywhere? (I know there was a blog article a while back with some stats in it, but what about the statistics today?)

501 users have uploaded 7202 versions of 1870 packages. http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/stats The download stats are computed occasionally, but I've not had time since Hackage moved to the new server. The last edition is here: "In November, there were 287 package released on Hackage, bringing the total number of Haskell packages to 1720. We had a record 143 thousand downloads from Hackage in November, breaking the previous monthly record of 95 thousand set in October 2009, and bringing the total downloads from Hackage to 1.53M." http://haskellwebnews.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/whats-new-in-haskell-december... We average about 100k downloads a month (e.g. via cabal-install). Or 2-3 thousand downloads a day. More updates soon. -- Don

Would it be possible to automate that, add that info to the stats page and link to it from the front page?

I'm pretty sure cabal-install plays a BIG role in that. I wouldn't have half - what do I say, probably not a quarter - as many packages installed without it. A propos, a big thank you to all who contributed to it.
Or 2-3 thousand downloads a day.
More updates soon.
