Do you know any other Pascal compiler for Linux which competes
seriously against FPC? Any big or medium sized project uses that
compiler?

Kylix is dead. GNU Pascal is almost dead. So there is not much competition left.

An indirect measure: check http://www.ohloh.net/ All top Pascal
developers for non-Windows projects are using FPC, actually most of
the top ones are Lazarus developers.

Another indirect measure: All Pascal projects which appeared in the
Linux Questions Awards were built in FPC. All but 1 FPC projects there
are build using Lazarus+LCL.

Another indirect measure: Put "pascal compiler linux" in Google. I see
only mentions of FPC and GNU Pascal (which is almost dead so can
hardly count).
