Just one further informational note about using pypi in this way for
statistics... In the porting work we've done within Fedora, I've noticed
that a lot of packages are python3 ready or even officially support python3
but the language classifier on pypi does not reflect this.  Here's just
a few since I looked them up when working on the python porting wiki pages:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Beaker/
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycairo
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/docutils
