LimeWire 1540
BearShare 748
Swapnut 614
Gnotella 120
Gnucleus 84
Unrecognized 28
Xolox 26
Mactella 5

I collected some statistical data myself (with LimeWire, though) and I found that, especially when using an ultrapeer-enabled client, you won't get any accurate data. -
(Before Morpheus 1.8.2.0 was released) 75 % of the hosts I saw were LimeWire nodes.
I find th number of CNET/SourceForge downloads a far better indicator for the popularity of a client.
Number of Downloads per week:
Morpheus: 420,973 (52%)
LimeWire (including clones): 169,576 (21%)
BearShare: 139,744 (17%)
Xolox: 34,923 (4%)
QtraxMax: 18,788 (2%)
Gnucleus: 18,220 (2%)
SwapNut: 2,597 (0%)
Swapper: 1,597 (0%)
MyNapster: 1,549 (0%)
