Their stats unfortunately do not tell you the size of the sample pool
used. They say they used their logs. But they don't say how many
logs they use or who is contributing the logs. If they do mention
this it's not obvious when you visit the site. If this info is
available I'd be interested in seeing it in order to have some
perspective to their numbers vs the other site I mentioned.
From the W3Counter site
91.48% for Windows
1.77% for Linux
4.58% for Mac
is very similar to the number from the site I linked. Actually the Linux
numbers are better, about double, from the site I Linked.
I gather you did not look down the page?

Statistics Are Often Misleading
You cannot - as a web developer - rely only on statistics. Statistics
can often be misleading.
Global averages may not always be relevant to your web site. Different
sites attract different audiences. Some web sites attract professional
developers using professional hardware, while other sites attract
hobbyists using old low spec computers.
