- Rovanion 13y agoThat it's horrible as a popularity index and should never be used as such. The number of visits is very low and the population which visits the site is very selective. Instead use data from highly popular sites like wikipedia: http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportOperatingSystems.htm http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportOpera...
- hrrsn 13y agoI don't think that's really accurate enough either. For example that page says iOS 1 is the most popular version of the OS, way ahead of iOS 7.
