  Vanilla Statistics are handled on our analytics servers, just like Google Analytics.

  Thanks for your answer, nonetheless it doesn't answer my question, let me reformulate.
  
  On the homepage [ http://vanillaforums.org/ ], it states "Vanilla is forum software that powers discussions on 503,300 sites"
  I'd like to know how the "503,300" is obtained, is it based on downloads?

  It's based on downloads from vanillaforums.org. It doesn't include any of the partners that offer vanilla as a download or automated install (web hosts, for example).
