As far as I know, most poeple subscribe to software.opensuse.org/download and from there a redirect to mirrors is done. so still: your servers get the information what was requested, isn't it? And in plus, the number has not to be 100% accurate (which no statistic ever was!) but give an idea of what is needed and what was a waste of time and would be a waste of time to continue maintaining.
