watchers_count is not the number of people watching the repository

If you consider watchers_count to be the number of people who watch the repository, not the number of people who star the repository, you should use subscribers_count. FYI: https://developer.github.com/changes/2012-09-05-watcher-api/

And if this is the intended behavior, I would like to have a new subscribers_count added.
