I would agree with this rule, but it also shows why this idea is also
unfeasible.
I can't think of any way you're going to be able to tell the difference
between
bots "downloading" packages and actual users. It's possible that
pkgstats.de
could be leveraged here, but even a zero number there may not be the
final answer
that is needed.
