Not all instances implement it yet, I guess it depends how often they pull from the dev branch
Example of search for 'movies'

You still don't see the number of weekly active users.
On Piefed, it's the 'Active people' column, where you can see the numbers without having to go to each community. Lemmy (and Photon in this case) only show subscribers, which isn't an accurate metric as most of them are ghost accounts.
The active user counts are returned, suppose we just need a client that actually displays it.
That could indeed be the case, but that's probably a low priority item for most of the client devs.
I had been asking Rimu to add this feature for a while as Lemmyverse doesn't show Piefed communities on the community search, and as a lot of people use Lemmyverse to search for communities, Piefed communities are basically invisible.
This solves it, if other clients want to implement it too, that would be nice of course
