I won't argue Lua's inherent fitness for embedding, but what makes you think Lua has a greater userbase than JavaScript? A quick search for 'javascript programming' at amazon yields 2498 book results, whereas a search for 'lua programming' returns 138. the same search terms on google return 36,200,000 for javascript, 266,000 for lua.
