Similarly, should the AS-core modules get a bump with each download of activestate (and how do we figure out, even roughly, how many there are)? I suspect this is one reason that a DBD has more downloads then DBI itself.

I was kind of wondering that myself. Can't use DBD::MySQL without using DBI...

Feel the white light, the light within
Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will
For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come

Also because DBD::MySQL gets updated more often then DBI, so people that track the newest version will download it more often. (And dynamic-IP connections will make them count every time.)
