No, you cannot submit your own download numbers. a) the interface and format are too hideous and complicated to think about; b) although no-one's attempted to really game the system, that'd be far too trivial.

However, if an application is downloaded through http://maemo.org/downloads/, it's count is increased even if the ultimate destination is on another machine (IIRC).

So having a repo or website of your own and providing all the software in the world won't allow you to gain any karma.
Please don't ask questions and then make statements based on an assumed answer.
