SourceForge reports downloads by country.  It appears that the number of
languages supported does not limit the locations where the downloads happen
(although destination country is necessarily an estimate, just as it is on
the ClustrMap of visitors to my web sites).  

I assume that as language versions increase (as just happened in a refresh
of AOO 3.4.1), the proportion of downloads will improve for countries where
those languages are used/preferred by someone.

Average number of downloads per day, multiplied by 150 dollars (which is
the inflated average price of MS Office Home, as the price is less than
80 dollars now).

By the way, they claim 236 countries and territories while their
language versions are around 10% than that. Huge FUD by the master of
IBM FUD, Mister Robert Weir.
