I know this is off-topic but I'm also surprised by Google Server's popularity. Can 10% of the top 1000 web-sites really be serviced by Google? You've got to pay for the reports, but I wonder if people using Google's CDN for static assets could be skewing those results. Does anyone have insight into the methodology used to collect this data?

They are probably counting each regional Google server as a separate "site" because it has a different hostname (different tld). There are easily 100 of those, esp. if YouTube counts as well.

Wouldn't most of those be Google own websites ? If we consider a separate www.google.x for each country then we would get to around 100 very quickly, I guess. The remainder would be filled by youtube, gmail, etc...
