It is. I don't believe free books are included in the NY Times list.

They now have separate "top paid" and "top free" lists.

Amazon also compiles its list much more frequently (not sure how often, but at least once every 24 hours). NYT is once a week, and is probably behind by about a week. They were discussing which titles were in the list last week, for example.
