That could be difficult because that's assuming that if they did have the same 
account
that they used the same username or email address (also likely, but not 
required). Also
it doesn't do anything if they have multiple PyPI accounts (project? company?) 
sharing
that password. If the attacker did get the passwords from Moin he has a pretty 
decent
dictionary to start with before he'd need to resort to a "dumb" brute force of 
PyPI.
