@Ulrich I don't anything in mind now I am just trying to understand what is
acceptable and what is the best way of doing it.

It would be for example very interesting if I have a theme to know which is
the most used plugin along with it. Also for example in number of installs,
if there are 10.000 downloads on wordpress.org is interesting to know how
many people use actually the theme and how big are those sites, the same is
nice to know if a particular feature is enabled/disabled by most of the
users or not .

The thing is that in most of the cases users don't provide feedback, if
they don't like something after they download the theme, they look for
another and if there are 2 themes both with 10k downloads but one of them
is still present on 1k sites and the other on 3k it means that 1st one has
some issues ( maybe it's hard to configure properly as per demo ) .
