It is kind of pointless to keep track of it, as virtually *everyone* is using Perl somewhere for something.

 

A few years ago somebody analyzed the download logs for ActivePerl with reverse DNS lookup and matched it against the Fortune 1000
companies domain names.  I don’t remember the exact number but around 90% of them had downloaded ActivePerl at least once from an IP
address owned by those companies.

 

Cheers,
