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.

Hoogle for Rust?
Instead of searching functions based on their type structure (like Hoogle), you could search for functions that "consume"/"produce" values of given types (like OCaml's Merlin). I think Rust already computes variance of type constructors, so such a tool just would have to obtain this information.

Dot completion
However, after posting this question I stumbled upon this Github issue where they say it isn't supposed to work out of the box and you're supposed to bind a key to it by editing your .emacs file. Turns out the default .emacs file binds auto-complete to "backtab" which means Shift+Tab but that didn't work. I did eventually discover that I can get some kind of completion by binding backtab to completion-at-point like this:

Advice/best practice/arhitecture pattern for building language with LSP in mind?
Self-advertising: I partcipated to the writing of Merlin: A Language Server for OCaml (Experience Report), which explains the overall design of Merlin, a language server for OCaml. A key idea of Merlin are that classic lexing-parsing-typing pipelines can easily be adapted to be incremental for a Language Server, especially when they are using immutable data structures.

Debugging/Profiling/VM library for Ocaml.
It's not so clear to me what you want, the following come to mind: - if you want to "inspect the recursive calls" of a recursive function, you may not need any instrumentation: you can turn your function in open-recursion style, and provide a fixpoint combinator that does the inspection (see code below) - if you want to instrument the code globally, one easier-than-most approach is to use a ppx preprocessor to instrument the code (this assumes that the logic you want can be expressed as a slight modification of the user-written code), see ppx_bisect (code-coverage instrumentation) for example.
