Well - maybe often - but there are some well known cases where
malicious downvotings have taken place - so just don't trust them.
One famous example is vim-addon-manager:
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2905
In the past it has had a good voting - and suddenly voting dropped.
I could fetch the details from the dabase - I'm too lazy this time.
I can digg up old posting why I think the voting is bad:
It doesn't provide feedback to the programmer about how to improve a
plugin. It just leads to bad feelings everywhere.
Never ever trust votings anywhere on the internet unless you know
votings were written by a friend.
