FWIW, when I've been writing docs or answering packaging questions and trying to use the approved, unambiguous terminology, using "project" for "thing with a PyPI page" has never been a problem; I've had much more difficulty in using "distribution" as the term for "a zipfile or tarball or egg that you download" (also a "package" in colloquial usage). I always have to awkwardly qualify it with "distribution tarball" or "project distribution" due to the conflict with Linux distributions.
