Thanks for that! I checked out the listings and the description below about their sources.

"E-book rankings reflect sales from leading online vendors of e-books in a variety of popular e-reader formats. ... Titles are included regardless of whether they are published in both print and electronic formats or just one format. E-books available exclusively from a single vendor will be tracked at a future date."

"Among the categories not actively tracked at this time are: perennial sellers, required classroom reading, textbooks, reference and test preparation guides, journals, workbooks, calorie counters, shopping guides, comics, crossword puzzles and self-published books."

There goes the chance for accurate popularity rankings of ebook sales. It doesn't matter if Amanda Hocking sells 15,000 ebooks in a week; they won't be showing up here.

I wonder how big a publisher has to be to qualify?
