How big is a typical board using the mikoto-pins?

The median is 18 × 33.3 mm, and 0% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the mikoto-pins?

By GitHub stars, Mikoto by zhiayang, with 355 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the mikoto-pins before building it?

Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
