Comment:

 The discussion above adequately explains that we have no means of checking
 if WP is back-ending a site unless the front-end has some indicator of it
 (e.g. a generator tag). If it does, it can be detected. Otherwise, us and
 other metric-gathering sites won't know WP is involved.

 If Ian's notion of a standardized tag/identifier is still of interest, it
 should be opened as a dedicated ticket.

 As such, and since there hasn't been any activity in this ticket for over
 4 years, I'm closing this out.
