There is linenoise (http://github.com/antirez/linenoise) but not Redis (http://github.com/antirez/redis). Looks very strange :)

As owner of the #7 top project, which has an industry-leading three watchers, I hereby deem his numbers as unimpeachable and demand lots of thousands of dollars added to my bank account in recognition of this feat.

Heh — I noted in the post that your project placed so highly because of a bunch of bitly URLs being cut off by Twitter (you did well grabbing bit.ly/bk): http://www.backtype.com/page/github.com%2Fholman%2Fbrightkit...

I only queried for projects being shared in 2010. Looks like a Hacker News post actually drove a bunch of tweets for linenoise: http://www.backtype.com/page/github.com%2Fantirez%2Flinenois...
