40% of all dollars earned by authors from ebooks on Amazon.com are earned by Indie self-published ebooks.

AFAIK, most major publisher author income is from advances.
How do these folks find out those figures?
Perhaps they ignore the advances major publisher authors receive, instead basing statistics on the royalties authors would receive if they ever earned out their advances -- something they usually don't. If so, a lot of the statistics make little sense.
