A good approximation might be Debian's and Ubuntu's popcon data:

Debian:

pcb: https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=3Dpcb
gaf: https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=3Dgeda-gaf

Ubuntu: they don't seem to have a fancy web ui for searching, so here
are some excerpts from

curl -s http://popcon.ubuntu.com/by_inst | grep '^#\|\bgeda\b\|\bpcb\b'


#Format
# =20
#<name> is the package name;
#<inst> is the number of people who installed this package;
#<vote> is the number of people who use this package regularly;
#<old> is the number of people who installed, but don't use this package
#        regularly;
#<recent> is the number of people who upgraded this package recently;
#<no-files> is the number of people whose entry didn't contain enough
#        information (atime and ctime were 0).
#rank name                            inst  vote   old recent no-files
