Is there any way to get how many times a git repository has been cloned or downloaded from github? I was just curious as I found other statistics such as commit times lines of codes cam be generated using: http://gitstats.sourceforge.net/ but I did not find how to check for clone/download count.

You can use shields.io which provides icon bars that displays counts for projects in various websites including Github. They display the download counts, but not the clone counts.

Nobody "downloads" my app because it's already published, but people do clone it. So I'd rather see the counts for that.
