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 is a feature of other languages that you miss in Lisp?
mmh this library seems rather good: https://github.com/anlsh/picl (but there are more, like the built-in Iterate feature. You probably found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32956033/is-there-a-straightforward-lisp-equivalent-of-pythons-generators)

Here's a Lisp library for contracts: https://github.com/sellout/quid-pro-quo (not saying this is what ADA has ..)

Lisp is Not an Acceptable Lisp
These are just his opinions. Many people really enjoy CLOS, and closer-mop provides better compatibility across implementations. Hygienic macros can be cool (like Racket's) but ultimately I'd consider them a preference. defmacro and gensym are more than fine. CL's type system is quite flexible, and there's stuff like defstar for better function signatures and quid-pro-quo for contract programming (which can actually solve the heading numbering problem). Multimethods are awesome. If you want an ML/Hindley-Milner type system then you should probably be using a different language anyway.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing picl and quid-pro-quo you can also consider the following projects:
mgl-pax - Documentation system, browser, generator.
slow-jam - Common Lisp lazy sequence library
