Since the Spanish course is the only one with so many levels (8) and units (50), does that mean that courses like the German one (2 levels) are considered useless for a non-beginner? What is the gap between the Spanish course and the German one?

You should probably consider # of pages or hours of audio rather than the number of levels and units. Swahili has one level and 100 units, but each unit is pretty small. I think each level is suppose to take you to a certain level of proficiency, regardless of the number of lessons.
