While Google are keeping the exact download statistics private, mobile advertising network Medialets have been doing some data analysis of their own and have publicised some approximate figures and trends for the Android Market’s first weekend.
Heres a rundown of the statistics Medialets have published:
- 167 Apps have been downloaded between between 667,000 and 2.9 Million times.
- Downloads are being driven by 41 apps, which account for between 73% and 83% of all possible downloads.
- Two applications, Pac-Man by Namco and The Weather channel generated the most downloads (50,000 - 250,000).
- Although download ranges can be very large, growth on the low-end was still nearly 80% during the first week.
- 5 Categories account for 61% of all apps.
- The number of apps has nearly tripled since launch, led by the Games, Tools and Productivity categories.
More approximate analysis and fancy graphs can be found on the
