That would depend on what information you want to store. A relationship field on each user would probably give you the most flexibility. Then when you detect and store a value you can update the relationship field.

Be sure to use the field key for the field.

// if download detected
// get the value of the user field without formatting it
$downloads = get_field('field_012abc567', "user_{$user_id}", false);
// see if the value is already added, if not add it
if (!in_array($post_id, $downloads)) {
  $downloads[] = $post_id;
  // and update the field
  update_field('field_012abc567', $downloads, "user_{$user_id}");
}
