Or one has to believe the OS vendors BS/Ac figures ?

I don't think you can find any figure, especially not official. What may help is the financial report of the few companies. But it is not easy to compare. In case of REDHAT product is not the distro itself, but the services sold.

Suse is widely used in Eurpoe and perticularly in Gr.Britain ! But it can be Japan also !

While RHE supposed to be popular in Corporate World due to their service network, ( although, Debian is widely used to build its derivatives ) !

Off-cource, direct feedback from service-providers ( like Yoshi`s company ) - can be more reliable !
