I doubt it's deliberate. Someone probably just wasn't too creative with the URL and didn't bother to put in any kind of authentication.

I don't see this stats page mentioned on their front page nor their blog's first page.

Nope, it is deliberate. The developer announced on the Business of Software forums that he was sharing it. Some of us around those parts do -- it answers what is far and away the most common question from newbies, provides for some external motivation, and satisfies a little bit of the human urge to know you're not totally alone in the endeavor.
