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.

Indeed, which is why I suggested an eDSL rather than a full-blown DSL. C# is decent at embedding domain-specific languages (fluent APIs are simple eDSLs and are fairly common). You can see the need even from their simple examples:

Although I just noticed that they also support defining objects via implicit functions, so that's neat:
