Scanning through the wheelodex.org database (specifically, a dump from earlier this week) finds 32,517 projects where the wheel DOES NOT contain a top-level module of the same name as the project (after correcting for differences in case and hyphen vs. underscore vs. period) and 74,073 projects where the wheel DOES contain a module of the same name.  (5,417 projects containing no modules were excluded.)  Note that a project named "foo-bar" containing a namespace package "foo/bar" is counted in the former group.

Of the 32,517 non-matching projects, 7,117 were Odoo projects with project names of the form "odoo{version}_addon_{foo}" containing namespace modules of the form "odoo/addons/{foo}", and 3,175 were Django projects with project names of the form "django_{foo}" containing packages named just "{foo}".  No other major patterns seem to stand out.
