There's large-scale fraud by the Apache Groovy ecosystem also. Downloads from the Bintray repository mostly come as redirects from the groovy-lang.org website hosted somewhere in Germany, and the owner of that domain has a history of fabricating download numbers and gaming popularity rankings, so I suspect the "over 1 million downloads a month" claim is similarly fraudulent, though by what degree is anyone's guess.
