You continue to miss the point: it's not the responsibility of anyone else to back up what you're saying or to provide any substantiation for your claims.
None whatsoever.
Nor did I ever say I found it "implausible" that there were hundreds or thousands of projects using this license - that is your word. I just noted that you're pushing a movement and making a claim about its adoption without any clear basis for anyone else to believe it. I'm not a fan of blindly believing tossed-out claims. And no, when you throw around phrases like "I'm quite certain", you don't get to blow off skepticism with this isn't peer-reviewed!
"[H]aving semi-actively tracked the growth of adoption for the last year" doesn't mean much of anything - for all a random person knows, it could be a WAG on the lines of I saw 50 or 60 projects in the first month, so let's say ~700 projects by the end of the year.
It's great that you can point to much better evidence than that, in all seriousness. In the future, you might bring some of that up before getting defensive. I don't know you, and like many other people out there, I'd never heard of the Unlicense; you're not going to get blindly trusted.
