It is a webapp that allows users to upvote/downvote tags on packages as

yum repo metadata by the bodhi masher and into the Fedora Packages[2]
indexer to improve search results. Fedora Tagger is also one of our
first attempts at "gamification". You earn "points" by voting and rating
and there's a leaderboard on which you can muscle for first place(!)
What problem is trying to address this app?
OK. We will have database of packages and tags. And we will be able to
generate leaderboard for each tag. Will be able to make some conclusions
from this? I'm afraid that the answer is "no".
Personally I would rather have something like popcon [1] for Fedora.
Even that lots of Debian people are not participating in popcon, still
lots of them do that. And it provides statistically significant sample
of installations. And can be used for decisions which packages will be
removed from installation DVD; which architecture is most used etc.
