Um, no. http://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/programming_languag...

Currently 82%, last time I checked it was 83%.

Looks legit. My apologies. I was unsure of how they would even go about determining that, but after reading their methodology and limitations, it seems that is a somewhat representative number.

It looks like they count by domains. Around 80% sounds right for PHP by that measure.

It slightly decreases the validity of the page when it states that ASP.NET is a programming language.

They even claim that PHP is a language..

Seriously, just assume they mean technology stack or something.
