That page measures something subtly different.  It shows what platform
the user was running when downloading.   The number I reported was
what platform version of AOO the user downloaded.

The numbers should be close, but it is possible, for example, that a
user downloads the Mac version of AOO from a Windows machine at work,
and then copies onto a USB key to bring home to install on their Mac.
 The SF page would count that as a Windows user.  My report would
count that as a Mac user.
