Amusingly, Bitbucket has since removed a lot of their useful fork information after a redesign that took place between now and this article's publish date (2011) [1]. One approach to this problem, as the article mentions, is to list by popularity - however what would this mean? If it's by the number of "stars", not many people curate their list to keep them up to date. It would have to be some kind of rolling popularity measure, perhaps number of unique users who've cloned a repository in the last month or something.
