I think you'd need statistics from something that's very commonly used by (nearly) everybody all over the world. Such as, everyone who makes a google search. Just looking at some of the stats from my website, which isn't going to be very representative of anything, you can see what OS *some* users use from the web agent strings. But, at times, you can also see that many user agents have obscurred data. I see that a lot of spiders crawled the site last week, it seems there's more of them than real people.
