This is a great project to get the ball rolling on.

Here's info on market share for web-based readers:

I didn't find stats on client-side readers, but I know that iTunes is 
the overwhelming leader.  Given that the web-based market is dominated 
by Yahoo and Google, and the client is dominated by Apple, it's fair to 
say that the dominant developers are the usual suspects.

I think that Juicer is the biggest open client, though it's been quite a 
while since I checked.
