You might be able to use the dataset we published here : https://zenodo.org/record/14809#.V-P6e5MrKis
Unfortunately, we didn't specifically ask a question on programming languages used, but you might be able to infer this based on their responses about common software used (which includes some programming languages, and some research software written in a specific language). We're following up on that survey soon so I will see if we can add an optional question on programming language to subsequent surveys.
