  If you add hits collected by
   	/var/ftp/pub/gmp-5.1.3/gmp-5.1.3.tar.bz2
  with hits to
   	/var/ftp/pub/gmp/gmp-5.1.3.tar.bz2
  and so on... you will see that 5.1.3 is more popular than 5.1.1 ...
  
You're right, good!

  Does this statistics count only files downloaded from
  ftp://ftp.gmplib.org/pub/
  or it incorporates also statistics about downloads using
  https://gmplib.org/download/
  ?
  
Only the former.

Created https://gmplib.org/~tege/stats2/usage_201404.html now.  It turns
out that the linking from our web pages is effective; 6.0.0a has about
70000 downloads in April, compared to 6000 for 5.1.3.  4.3.2 is not on
the charts.

(If we extrapolate the 4.3.2 ftp downloads to the same period, it'd be
around 11000 downloads.  As Andreas suggested, GCC probably causes these
downloads, albeit that they try to make people download this obolete
code from their own site or from the main gnu.org ftp area.)
