Indeed, I was thinking about a user who visits the doc webpage in his
native language looking for some doc and since English is the default
language for untranslated docs, a click in one of those could indicate
the need to translate it (which is not a 404), that's why i suggest a
sort of session tracking, however your idea about getting the most read
English docs is a good start and it could help us.

That seems to be fine. I don't know if it is related to
this mailing list, but that approach could be easily adopted
in order to know the number of access to the GWN.
