Probably the top 10 names are more or less correct there, but some funny notes:

33. D
36. Scratch
40. Haskell
42. JavaFX Script
49. Scala

Scratch is an educational tool. It isn't really suitable for any real world applications. It slows down considerably with too many expressions.

There are several books about Haskell and Scala. Both have several books on them, active mailing lists, and also very many active community projects. Haven't heard much about JavaFX outside Sun/Oracle. These statistics look really weird.

I reckon Fortran is the one to look at it. If Tiobe's stats were sensible, the Fortran numbers would be solid as a rock.
And ADA ought to be pretty stable too. But look at this:

Laughable.
