App Downloads: Please show a more exact number of app downloads in the CIQ store

I have recently made my own watch face and uploaded it to the Connect IQ store, however, it is very difficult (and a little frustrating) as a developer to not be able to see the amount of downloads I have. For a number of days, all I knew about my watch face's progress was that it had "100+" downloads. Then when I checked yesterday, I saw that it was finally "1K+". But that's all we as developers see. A developer who has "100K+" won't know how many downloads they have until they reach "500K+" - and that is a very massive gap that could take months before the developer really finds out a better approximation of how many downloads they have.

I have really enjoyed being able to make this watch face and I am very thankful that Garmin has provided means for independent developers to do so, but it is very difficult to gauge what audiences want if we don't know anywhere near how many people are actually interested in the product. Even just showing "1.2K" or "534K" is better than having to wait tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of downloads (and many months later) before knowing how many downloads we have.

Please consider adding this feature as it would really make marketing a little easier for independent developers. Thank you!
