I think you'll find that Media Metrix has done a bunch of this (perhaps
not exactly these statistics, but similar): www.mediametrix.com
IIRC, most of their statistics focus on top "internet properties" and
providers for the advertising community, not specifically user behavior,
but you could ask them. Many of their services are pay-only.
