The easier, less invasive but also less accurate option would be to publish an empty crate with a random name that does not exploit typos (just some random junk) and check how often that crate is downloaded.
You can assume that almost all downloads for this crate are bot downloads and just subtract that amount from the downloads of the typo-squatted crate
