You can track and plot the usage numbers for this third-party BAT client over time as a metric for BAT growth.

You can grab the number of daily active users (number of users who’ve checked for updates to these extensions) from these pages:

Interesting! How reliable is BATify, it seems like a closed source project and I've never heard about it before?

No idea. It's a fork of the payment system in Brave (which is mostly an extension already). I only discovered it a few days ago. I have test payments going through in a few weeks.

The extension has been removed from both the Chrome and Firefox repositories.
