I get the feeling
that they're not really expecting to reach 10,000 for a while, if at all. Instead it seems they're using the power of the word 'FREE!' - if it's just freeware hanging round the web no one would really be that interested, but because it's free, especially temporarily compared to a future price of $20 or such, then suddenly you wanna get it while it's free.
Yes, I downloaded it, I mean, it's free!
(And then from there they get established and make more software, put advertising into it, maybe charge for some of it, etc.)
