AppBrain Find your application at http://www.appbrain.com/
"Claim" it as the developer. If you have enough users of your application (about 15,000 I think), you will get access to very detailed stats on your users - breakdowns by age, phone type, country and gender. The more users you have the more detailed the breakdown. The day that my application reached the minimum and I could see my app stats completely changed my understanding of who had downloaded it. I thought my app would appeal to younger users and be more attractive to men. I also thought I was doing well in Germany and Korea based on the languages of the comments. All wrong. My peak demographic is 35 year old women. I don't have enough users yet to see the percentage of my users in Germany or Korea, but apparently 5% of my downloads are in Italy despite never having received a comment in Italian. There is one potential source of error - the population that is measured against is not the general android population, but the AppBrain user population. I don't know how representative this is, but its certainly way better than what the Market gives you (ie better than nothing). Its a really great free service. It also skates to the very edge of what can be done without compromising user privacy, and in some aspects I believe it crosses the line. Not your problem though; enjoy the data they give you. A great, free, innovative service. Highly recommended.
