Assuming you've included either the Plugin URL or Author URL in your
plugin, you might want to check out your website's statistics and look
for any referrals from URLs like www.example.com/wp-admin/plugins.php
. I've found that often people who are using one of my plugin will
click the link to the plugin or author homepage from their Plugins
screen in WordPress. This will at least give you some sites which are
using your plugin.
