OK, I have some results but they have to be interpreted with HUGE care (and as 
such I do not announce them but post them somewhere in a random thread :):

I have parsed the logs back to mid of march and I tried to take patches that 
were released about the same time - but that's not really easy, but they are 
all around ~800:

kde4-dolphin-805.xml (slightly misnamed: basically all of kde 4.1 basis):
  297019 cookies

gnome-session-754.xml (just gnome-session):
  109894 cookies

kde4-akonadi-806.xml (just kdepim of 4.1):
  241373 cookies

kdegraphics3-819.xml (just kdegraphics 3.5):
  99244 cookies

yast2-bootloader-814.xml (basic package everyone will have):
  328657 cookies

Please remember that these numbers do not add, it's perfectly fine for people 
to have all 5 packages installed and it's very possible that people have KDE 
or GNOME installed but never download any patches and it's very possible that
people used KDE 4.2 in april and so the patch did not apply to them, but they
still happened to have kdegraphics3 installed - WHATEVER: as I said: don't 
take that as replacement for a well researched survey.

Greetings, Stephan
P.S. I tried to be very careful, but I'm not a perl programer anyone would 
hire, so there might be random or systematic errors in the data. All of them 
are mine.
