Dropping a question like this the day before a _major_ holiday in the
US, with an expected response before the first workday after that
holiday, to ask specific questions about usage in the US is really bad
planning on somebody's part.

Being FLOSS, there is no way to know if one download represents one
user, or 40,000 users. Likewise, there is no way to know if the same
person downloaded the program two or more times. Currently, there are
roughly 100,000 downloads of Apache OpenOffice every day.

To do the statistical analysis of OS, and where people download the
program from, go to
https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/stats/json?start_date=2015-01-01&end_date=2016-11-22

One major issue, is that this data is from SourceForge, and reflects
that percentage of the population that uses either Windows, or Mac OS X.
Linux users tend to download AOo from the distro repository. Users of
versions of *Nix tend to compile from source.

For 1st quarter and 2nd quarter 2016, 15% of the downloads are from the
United States, but 36% of the downloads are for en_US.

Sorry, I don't have the URL for downloads by language pack. :(

Neither the web forum nor the mailing list provide data about where the
users are from.

Currently, AOo does one release per year.
