There is no reliable stat.

(I'm not commenting on the *reliability* of those statistics. I'm just
pointing out their *availability*.)

There is also the KLive statistics, which are not so much the demographic
information that Handover is looking for (and again the numbers are
provided on a completely voluntary basis, and so not a good statistical
sample), but they might be interesting:

The idea of KLive is to monitor which kernels versions, features, and
modules are being used, and on what kind of hardware, to see how
much "testing" any given kernel configuration gets.

I think it's quite skewed towards Gentoo at the moment, though, because it
gets a lot of notice on the Gentoo forums.
