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.

I’ve built a motion triggered quacking duck to alert me if anyone is trying to steal my cookies
Depends on how you configure you Pico. I.e. this project consumes around 17mA idling while using CircuitPython's light sleep, which is quite a lot. One of my other battery powered projects uses 2.3mA as I was able to tap in Pico's deep sleep mode from C https://github.com/dr-mod/little-sun-gazer

I’ve built a motion triggered quacking duck with wireless charing that’s powered by RPi Pico
As for the bigger battery, yes the duck has room for a battery with more capacity. But I'd say the way to improve the ducks longevity would be to tap into the other Picos power saving modes that I wasn't able to achieve with CircuitPython. I was able to achieve 2.3 mA in deep sleep mode for my Little Sun Gazer Project https://github.com/dr-mod/little-sun-gazer , but it's written in C.
