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.

Best practices for AST design in Rust?
I second looking at the rust compiler. It splits various AST elements into a struct and enum, where the enum is a 'Kind' (eg. Expr for struct which contains an ExprKind enum). That allows things like line numbers and other common data to be easily fetched from the struct and variant-specific values can be stored in the enum, which can be pattern matched. I did a similar thing in a compiler I made a while ago here https://github.com/transistorfet/molten/blob/main/src/analysis/hir.rs

How good is LLVM in other languages other than C++? (In my case I'm interested in using Rust)
I managed to write an ocaml-like language compiler in Rust using llvm-sys (which uses the LLVM C API) without too much trouble. It may not be the fastest but it's fairly feature cobplete. The code is at https://github.com/transistorfet/molten
What are some alternatives?
When comparing oktac and molten you can also consider the following projects:
llrl - An experimental Lisp-like programming language
gecko - Strongly-typed, general purpose programming language based on Rust
