Where does this statistic come from? I only see 196 stars on github at https://github.com/Irrelon/ForerunnerDB

Seems made up. It's 1 to 1 same number as here: http://bitcommand.com/ which uses same template.

Ooops, sorry about that, rookie mistake pulling a template and using it without going through all the sections properly. I've pulled it from the page... apologies!

Almost certainly just page visits. Or it's just made up.

Maybe it's the number of download?
