I was looking for a simple way to count the number of file downloads on my blog, and stumbled upon SimpleDownloadCounter written by Al Nyveld (http://www.nyveldt.com/blog). The extension simply counts the number of downloads per uploaded file. The download count is only shown when logged in.

The extension did not initially work for BlogEngine 1.6.1.0, but with a little tinkering I got it to work just fine. 

I have uploaded the fixed version here (revision 1.1), enjoy!
