I run KeyDB which is a medium sized OSS project. Stars and followers go up after we're posted somewhere but it doesn't necessary correlate directly with downloads. It's a best a leading indicator of what our downloads will do over the next month. I suppose its a better indicator than random, but I don't think it's very useful. You're much better off looking at Stack Share or job postings where this information is given away freely.
