What about something like this on the community page: (the numbers here are foobars)?

where the syntax is #tag: [posts in last 24h] | [posts in last 7d] | [lifetime posts]

This would allow users to see which tags were popular due to recent events (i.e., if the fist two numbers were very close to the third) or which are popular over the long term. Perhaps the timeframes could be customizable in the user's settings, I could see day, week, month, year, and lifetime each being useful in certain situations.
