I use score to track how I am improving.  Others do but are afraid to admit it do to the odd negative image on this forum like ack hugging is bad when you are highly out numbered.

Then I hope you notice a significant dip before any rise. Flying for score is counter-productive to progress

If you're not hunting a lot of bombers, I've found hit percentage to be a fair barometer of how my gunnery is doing.  That's about the only stat I've ever paid much attention to.

Unfortunately, some people go to the scoring page can't see past their ranking and miss the statistical information that is there so they ho-hum the page and ridicule players that go to the scoring page.

Like kills vs assist can be a good indicator of gunnery skills and or recently changed convergence settings when the assist start rising. K/D rise can be an indicator of impatience.  You can go to the killed by page and see which planes offer you the greatest problems.  Tons of good information.

Can't you tell by feeling if you're progressing?

Nope.

I like to watch my hit%. If for the tour it stays above 5 I'm doing what I want. While flying it sometimes feels like all I do is miss and spray, but as long as I see the numbers maintain I know is just what Im feeling at the time, but not what is really happening.

I also like to watch my k/d and k/sortie. Again, sometimes it feels like all I do is lift off get my wheels up and Im in the tower. Checking those stats on the score page lets me know if that is what is really happening, or am I averaging out at a higher count. If they are higher it lets me know that while I may get hammered quick alot I do fight my way out often enough to off set it.

Progressing? LOL!!!! after 12+ years I think Im all done "progressing", Im just working on maintaining what little I have!  LOL!
