of downloads still active

At least 100 of 17.7K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,186 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
