The nature of ArchLinux as a rolling-release distro means that ISO downloads are not a good measure of the number of users at all. (Most users downloaded an ISO once, a long time ago, and not for each release as for other distros.) Add to that the fact that there are torrent links for the ISO as well, for which download counts are probably not available. I think the only way to get some kind of measure would probably be to aggregate a count of IPs hitting each of the Arch package mirrors, which would be a colossal undertaking :D Paul On 18 February 2016 at 21:12, Sebastiaan Lokhorst < sebastiaanlokhorst@gmail.com> wrote:

I do not know about a download counter, but maybe distrowatch.com is what you are looking for.
DistroWatch itself says:
The DistroWatch Page Hit Ranking statistics (...) correlate neither to usage nor to quality and should not be used to measure the market share of distributions.
So that's not a good measure.
The only statistics I know about are at [1], but those are opt-in. So probably not a good measure either.
