Just wanted to do a little statical post, showing proper numbers for the number of applications on AppsLib. Different websites appear to be reporting different numbers, ArchosLounge for example is reporting 1870 applications (as of 10/10/09). I’m really not sure where, or how these stats where gathered and it was very apparent that they where wrong when you actually open up the appslib program. I was interested myself in the real number of apps so I did a little research and figured other people might be interested as well.

From the data that I can pull directly from AppsLib I currently generate the following statistics (as of 10/30/09):

Applications by where the file is actually hosted:
AndAppStore:	55
SlideMe:	72
Phoload:	13
Getjar:	190
Other:	14 (google code, direct author sites)
Total applications:	457

Applications by category:
Communication	27
Entertainment	92
Finance	15
LifeStyle	19
Multimedia	35
News	34
Productivity	20
Reference	22
Shop	8
Social	47
Tools	110
Travel	22
Demos	4
Software Libraries	2
