It would actually be interesting to conduct a study on a representative sample of articles comparing the distribution of citations and the distribution of popularity indicators (such as bookmarks in online reference managers) to see if there is any significant correlation.

This would require getting a dataset of citations and a dataset of bookmarking from connotea or citeulike or an equivalent service.
