Apples and oranges to be sure, but there are no other statistics that anyone else is able to offer about use of non-ascii identifiers in Java, Javascript, C#, etc. Let's see what we can find. I made several attempts to search for non-ASCII identifiers using google.com/codesearch and here's what I got.

I think you've got a selection bias here, since google isn't likely to index code not intended for the whole world, and thus the code you'll be searching through is more likely to be in english than code in general.

Perhaps searching the entire web for "class ", or " (" or " =" would give more accurate results, if such a thing is even possible.

Later, Blake.
