I am interested because I am a webmaster that uses PDF files. I know average statistics about screen resolutions, operating systems, browsers, and other variables and design my website to take these statistics into account. If virtually all visitors have PDF readers I can dispense with links and text explaining how to download Adobe Reader. If a significant portion do not, I will know to be sure to include an explanation. A good estimate could be easily created by anyone through a simple and well-designed Internet user poll or survey. Adobe may wish to keep the results a secret, but surely another entity has done the research and released the results.
