It's not just about the _number_ of libraries, but the _usefulness_ of them for solving real-world problems. Haskell has a large number of libraries that are of no interest whatsoever to commercial software developers (new numerical hierarchies, category theory libraries, etc.), and is missing many key libraries that would be of great commercial value.
