Perhaps popularity is the wrong term. If you look at delicious you can list your tags by name or count. I really meant count... or how popular the tag was (how often it was used) in your database.

So, for example a tag that is applied to 25 items is more popular than a tag that is applied to 8 items. Of course "popular tags" on the delicious home page is based on how many tags are used across all users I assume. If you go to your personal page that isn't a section in the tag list.

(see tag options in delicious). My page is at http://delicious.com/pilotbob.
