Nice Airport map OJ W! It's cool seeing nothing but runways rendered at a fairly high zoom
In response to your "aircraft movements per year" idea, it makes sense, but it's not like airports have a sign outside advertising this information for us mappers to plug into the database. Perhaps it's publicly available online, or it may vary by country. I think it probably makes most sense to have a solution that doesn't depend on data which may not be easily accessible.
