I believe some from the Debian crowd migrates to Ubuntus, for reasons ranging from having up to date packages to actually having releases.
The numbers on distrowatch are sadly notting to go by as they are manipulated. Usually new distributions get initially high scores mostly people like to see what the hype is about, as with Gentoo a while back. But they slack of after a while when the newness factor disappears. In addition some Ubuntu fanboys have in a organized fashion worked to get the hits up.
