Behind English, I mean.

My bet's on Japanese. Any idea how one would measure this?

English is probably a lot higher since those numbers are just native speakers.

Chinese is probably pretty high too, not that many Chinese people know English. They're like separate Internets.

I see. probably you are right.
But I know Japanese internet users are also pretty much separated from English world.
I surf both japanese and english sites
and I usually find there are no japanese people
at all on english sites
while japanese people are usually stuck with japanese pages
they never visit english sites or always use google translation.
