AFAIK there is currently no such thing. (I used to have a tool tip in place that explained this; I'll put it back ASAP. crate.io has something similar in place IIRC.)
Perhaps instead of zero with a tooltip, you could just say "N/A" for releases that don't list any files -- or just exclude the download line altogether. You do, after all, know whether a release has any files from its PyPI data, so you do know the difference between "zero downloads" and "unknown downloads".
