Terra and Ravi are to Lua as C++ is to C, in my opinion. They're forks. LuaJIT, however, is just Lua code.

hi folks!

i asked the tiobe team to add luajit to lua for higher rank and more
popularity, as i think lua deserves more fame. they accepted it, but
then i thought about ravi, and there are much more luaish languages
out there. so if you can collect more strong suggestions, then you can
send those as well. i've found
http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaImplementations , but i don't want to
send them the whole list. in the one hand cuz others gonna do the same
for other languages, and then gain will be lost, and on the other hand
cuz i don't know which are valid, popular and living projects. so i'm
just leaving this opportunity here for you to make a good decision.

criteria are here:
