You can start by looking at the following Wikipedia page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_source_code_software_hosting_facilities

See the "Popularity" section. GitHub sits and 19.8mil projects. Second
place is SourceForge at a mere 324k. Stats are published numbers
directly from each service provider. That is quite impressive, I never
realised GitHub was that big - I somehow thought SourceForge would be
tops. I also didn't realise Google Code being so popular (250k projects).
