I'm looking for statistics for android distributions for individual countries but the main source of information, Google themselves, only have information for the entire world. There was also this stack exchange question but it hadn't really received a satisfying answer (it points to a blogpost with statistics for specific apps which is not terribly useful).
If I'm making an app for a single country I need information about what distributions are being used in that country. Google doesn't seem to be releasing such information, even if we were willing to pay for it (which we might if pricing was reasonable).
Answer
Here you can find statistics of mobile operative systems reach by country, based on the web traffic generated by mobile devices. The web interface gives the possibility to filter the data, choose the country, differentiate by distribution of OS. The data are collected by the domain registry Afilias, which manages domain names like .org, .mobi and .info. Of course the statistics cannot be precise, as they are bounded to accesses on the particular domain names owned by Afilias, but I think they can serve well for an overview.
