it claims to get the data from ecosyste.ms for this, but ecosyste.ms has absolutely no idea how often curl is downloaded so I'm really curious what exactly this number is.

Frankly, I don't know what a curl download means. a curl package manager install? a docker pull? a tarball download? git clone? installing an OS that bundles curl? All of those?

@bagder click on learn more. And choosing the package source "NuGet" shows the same graph, so this is were your downloads are. Absolutely no docker pulls though.
