For statistics of browser usage in the general academic community, I work at a major medical university. For the month of February the university had 203,624 unique visitors, the download bandwidth was 395 GB. Of this traffic: .edu 40%, .net 30%, ip (unknown) 20%, .com 8%.  Other top visitors <1% in order of usage: .org, .gov, .de, .us, .mil. In other words the largest group of visitors was from the academic world; people that you would expect to be fairly computer literate.

Top 10 browser by %:
IE 81.9%, FF 9.7%, Unknown 3.9%, Safari 3.3%, Mozilla .7%.
Other top 10 < .25% in order of usage: Opera, Netscape, Wget, LibWWW, UP Browser (phone)

There is no separate listing for Chrome so it is most likely part of the 3.9% unknown. I tried to estimate Chrome by comparing Unknown to February of last year but that was 3% so the best that can be said is that Chrome represented something less that 3.9% and most likely closer to 1%.
