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.

Using C libraries in Haskell with Cabal
It kinda depends on how easy it is to build the C library, but assuming you can basically just list the files to point the C compiler at, yeah, it's not that hard to just include the C library in your project itself. The zstd library on Hackage does this (source on Github).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing zlib and hs-zstd you can also consider the following projects:
binary-serialise-cbor - Binary serialisation in the CBOR format
zip-conduit - Working with zip archives via conduits.
json-encoder - A single-pass JSON encoder with a declarative DSL
lz4 - Haskell bindings to lz4
activitystreams-aeson - Basic library for working with Activity Streams
zip - Efficient library for manipulating zip archives
mime - A Haskell MIME library
snappy - Fast Haskell bindings to Google's Snappy compression library
tar - Reading, writing and manipulating ".tar" archive files.
base91 - A Base91 Encoder & Decoder for Haskell
zlib-bindings - Low-level wrapper around the zlib library
lzip - Lzip compression / Lzlib bindings
