I don't trust those numbers (Score:1)

by Arador (8415)

Msql-Mysql-modules for example has only 50 dependencies (http://cpants.perl.org/dist/used_by/Msql-Mysql-modules), none of them particularly common ones. HTTP-BrowserDetect has only 8. There's no way those could have ended up so highly.

  My own results of this kind of analysis at http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/88746/cpan-prereqs.json.txt [getdropbox.com] gave Msql-Mysql-modules a (very high) score of 21530, which backs up Alias's numbers. I can look at generating detailed dumps later today.
