For 2.0 we are (hopefully) adding ratings and reviews, which is probably a bit more important than popularity, because it can help identify great but lesser-known software. (That OpenOffice.org is popular doesn't necessarily mean people like it that much.)

Once we've got that implemented thoroughly, we'll look at showing popularity separately. In the meantime, if you're interested in hacking on Launchpad, you could help out by fixing 139855 -- because one prerequisite for doing it well will be to show popularity for PPAs, not just for items in the Ubuntu repositories.
