I would focus more on what your actual app percentages are instead of the average over the whole Market. For instance one of my apps has a total of about 15-20% at v1.5 and 1.6 (spread evenly between the two). I was thinking about discontinuing support for 1.5 until I saw this. This is almost 1/5 of my user base that I would have alienated if I had done so. Keep in mind that these percentages vary greatly to what the Market average is. I think the Market average stuff is just to give you an idea of the Android version trends more than anything else and you should treat it accordingly. And, since, in theory, the new statistics are updated nightly, I would think that the market average numbers are more accurate than the weekly/bi-weekly updated stats on the market share page.
