From Read Luigi Mangione’s Resume - Ken Klippenstein I found https://github.com/lnmangione. At the moment he has 2.5k followers on this account. Which is quite a lot for github, and I am guessing 100% accrued in the past few days. AFAIK there is no way to get the history of the metric.

There is history available on repo "stars". GitHub Star History for the repo lnmangione/Halite-III, which seems to be the most popular:

Some people are making what seem like legitimate (not jokes/political) PRs in old repos. Very strange.

      I realize I made one crucial assumption, which is that you knew he picked up the nickname "Luigi's Mansion" almost immediately after his name became public because his name sounds similar. I guess it's a sort of obvious joke for someone who knows of the game, and the name of that repo being a character from Luigi's Mansion suggests that he's not only aware of the joke but also doesn't mind leaning into it (not a given, since I could imagine it getting old pretty quick if half the people you meet make the same joke after you introduce yourself).
