Doing it that way (checking for people running 'apt-get update' or
similar) isn't going to be possible for Debian, since we don't have
access to the logs on all our mirrors (and getting that access would be
/very/ hard to do, since it would require our mirrors to give out that
data).
However, etch will install popcon by default, which also tracks unique
submitters. While this will be voluntary (people can decline to install
popcon fairly easily), it will give us a fair approximation of the
number of our users (at the very least, it will give the lower margin).
