Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records qTop version 0.1.2 as active, updated 16y ago and tested up to WordPress 2.9.
Overview
About this plugin
Displaying popular posts is always a good idea, but on multi-language blogs most of the usual plugins won’t work. This widget is here to help, using some less well know functions of the Popularity Contest plugin combined with the powerful qTranslate plugin. Now you will be able to display top-post in as much languages as you wish!
And it get’s better: with options to display excerpts and meta-information and built-in support for the “Advanced Excerpt”-plugin, you now have even more options to fine-tune your top-posts display.
IMPORTANT: qTop requires Crowd Favorite’s “Popularity Contest”-plugin to work.!!!
Features
qTop is an ever growing powerful widget to fine-tune the display of top posts/pages based on Alexander King’s “Popularity Contest” plugin. It supports String-filtering through qTranslate and the display of excertps and meta-information. Excerpt-display makes use of the “Advanced Excerpt” plugin if availabe.
results are sent through the qTranslate string-filter to allow multilanguage blogs to display correct post-titles
optional display of post meta-information (author nickname and post-date)
optional display of post excerpt
makes use of “Advanced Excerpt” plugin if available
option to exclude pages from results
