It's not a double negative. Like "almost" could be substituted for "barely", like, almost succeeded, and barely succeeded, may have opposite meanings, but if you substitute almost for barely, it's the difference between narrowly failing, and narrowly succeeding. So, if the site is narrowly failing or narrowly succeeding, it conveys almost the same message.

So, "Barely Nobody" equates to "Narrowly succeeding", which is almost the same as almost failing.
