Interesting that BL reports a different order than Peeron does:

1       Black           143939
2       Gray            80050
3       White           71770
4       Red             67956
5       Yellow          52425
6       Blue            45521
7       DkGray          20404
8       Green           13672
9       Brown           8167
10      Tan             6925
11      MdStone         6332
12      Clear           5895
13      TrRed           4319
14      DkStone         4235
15      SandGreen       3897

I guess the two sites have a different collection of inventories to work
off. I believe Peeron has a lot more older inventories (of sets that
people don't often sell), which BL usually has the newer ones before
Peeron gets them.

(from http://www.peeron.com/cgi-bin/invcgis/reports/mostcommon.cgi?type=Color&more=1&start=0)

Any chance that Peeron could reduce the duplicate/multiples out of those number
and show the 'unique parts' for each color ? That might be most revealing to
show which colors have had the greatest variety of parts produced.
