First, Android IS a version of Linux. Separating Android and Linux here is a dishonest sleight of hand. If they want to separate Android and Linux then they would have to list each Linux distro separately as well.
I've never trusted NetMarketShare's numbers to begin with. There is no reliable way to track Linux installs. I'd like to see how NMS compensates for the differences in browsing habits of more technically advanced Linux users vs. the general population. There are far too many variables to be accurate here.
These numbers are largely meaningless.
