(raw data is obtained the stage)
First, equipment 100 can obtain the data/information relevant with income volume to application number of downloads for each platform from each application market server 200 by communication network 300.Particularly, in one embodiment, equipment 100 can obtain the data relevant to the application of wanting rank from each application market server 200 by the reptile program on it (be included or be not included in client 150).These data can comprise: the download time of the version for each platform of this application in this application market, its respective downloaded price etc.In addition, equipment 100 can also obtain by the reptile program on it application download and the income volume of its each platform of supporting from each application market server 200.
The application download of this each platform can be added up for each platform by respective application market conventionally.For example, in one embodiment, the first application market can count application download for the first platform, and this application download comprises the download of all application based on the first platform of downloading by the first application market.Meanwhile, the first application market can also count application download for the second platform, and this application download comprises the download of all application based on the second platform of downloading by the first application market.
In the situation that certain application market is not added up (or unexposed) this data, equipment 100 can, for each platform, be defined as the download sum of each application based on this platform inquiring in this application market the application download of this platform.Certainly, in further embodiments, even if certain application market provides this statistics, also can use the download sum of each application for a certain platform inquiring in this application market as the application download of this platform.In fact, download sum for each application of a certain platform generally should be less than or equal to the above-mentioned application download counting (not being probably the whole application in this market because want each application of rank), and for the mode by below describing obtains more valuable weight, we use the application download in being all applied in that comprises counting conventionally.Then, the download summation to each application of identical platform, to obtain the download of this platform in this market.
In addition, for income volume, in certain embodiments, the download unit price that equipment 100 can provide according to the downloading page of the version for different platform of the respective application from each application market and the product of respective downloaded number as above, determine that this on a certain platform is applied in the income volume in this application market.Certainly, in further embodiments, application may be to lease (for example, by use duration pay) and the mode of no sale is downloaded.In this case, income volume is the product of lease unit price and number of downloads and lease duration.In addition,, in other embodiment, income volume can also comprise the ad revenue relevant to application.For this some, can estimate according to the average ad revenue of industry, or obtain by other means, for example the application market of this rank of request participation initiatively discloses etc.Owing to how to obtain the information relevant to this some not within main concern scope of the present invention, therefore omit detailed description herein.Then, the income volume summation to each application of identical platform, to obtain the income volume of this platform in this market.
So far, equipment 100 has got the respective application download for each platform and the corresponding income volume of each application market from each application market server 200.In one example, related data can be as shown in table 1 below, wherein d
i, jrepresent the application download of i platform this market that equipment 100 gets from j market, and r
i, jrepresent the income volume of i platform this market that equipment 100 gets from j market, wherein, i=1 or 2 and j=1 or 2 or 3 (the invention is not restricted to this, in other embodiments, i and j also can get other numerical value).In addition, in this table 1, the rightest hurdle is for the related data sum in all application markets of identical platform, i.e. D
iwhole application downloads of representative application based on i platform in whole three application markets, R
iwhole income volumes of representative application based on i platform in whole three application markets, wherein i=1 or 2.
Table 1
In addition,, for the needs of subsequent calculations, equipment 100 also obtains the download of the version for different platform of each application from the server 200 of each application market.For example, equipment 100 can obtain the first application A from server 200A
1for the first platform P
1version at Primary Market M
1in download.More generally, in the context of the present invention, by equipment 100 from j market M
