The number of downloads will not give you any serious number.
Our company has dozens of PostgreSQL instances running, and none of
them was downloaded from postgresql.org, as we mostly use packages from
the linux distributions (mostly debian, but some Gentoo, LFS and
OpenSuSE), and for some very special use cases, direct checkouts from
the source repository version control system.

Markus
