I'm not too bothered by number of stars, nor necessarily by the issue count (maybe a lot of their work is discussed by email, not the tracker). Most important, to me, is the number of commits. And that doesn't look too bad; there aren't a huge number of them, but they're fairly consistently being made. So I'd say the project isn't dead, though you could very well argue that it's merely playing catch-up. (I didn't look at the content of the commits in detail or anything.)
