The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

What's the simplest language to implement?
Depending on what you are trying to accomplish by writing "a language", extending an existing language or making a syntactically-different language that compiles to an existing language can be both fast and rewarding. For example, I made https://github.com/8byt/gox in a couple days with no prior language-design experience (gox is to Go as JSX is to Javascript).

GoKart: A static analysis tool for securing Go code
Long ago I hacked together a weekend project with a friend of "JSX for go" that allowed embedding html tags into Go source like people do for react. We were pleasantly surprised how readable and flexible the Go parser source code was, even for the pretty dramatically different syntax we were trying to support.
