Just checked the analytics on a non-IT website:

IE represents 10.45%

Out of that:

    IE6      .28%
    IE7     2.03%
    IE8    19.81%
    IE9    16.57%
    IE10   16.15%
    IE11   45.13%

Here's bloomberg.com:

IE represents 25.00%

    IE6    0.11%
    IE7    3.20%
    IE8   34.39%
    IE9   32.94%
    IE10  16.48%
    IE11  12.87%

That's really interesting, how did you get these statistics (do you work for Bloomberg, or do they have this publicly available somewhere)?

I work for Bloomberg. (And yes, I verified that web guys didn't mind sharing the numbers :))

An apparel client in the US over the last 90 days:

    IE6    0.07%
    IE7    1.33%
    IE8   19.44%
    IE9   18.67%
    IE10  16.24%
    IE11  44.25%

Everyone needs to do their own math, though. I run a network of news & information sites for business professionals in different industries and the numbers vary a bit, but are almost all much "worse" than your numbers.

On utilitydive.com (covering the utility/energy industry) it's 35% IE and of that 40% is IE8. IE6 and IE7 are much less, but they also don't really work with our latest redesign so it's a bit hard to tell.

On a general consumer website since the start of 2014:

IE: 32% - 11: 42% - 10: 16% - 9: 18.4% - 8: 20.2% - 7: 2.4% - 6: 0.07%
