Came across this ages ago but only signed up recently so never got to say it.
You can look that numbers up but a few months back Minecraft announced how many digital copies they'd sold on the PS3 store. It sounded like a lot so I went onto the site and checked the number of ratings it had. It worked out that for every 50 people that bought it (roughly) 1 of them rated it.
This is only 1 game but if you matched up officail numbers for known games and checked their ratings I'm sure we could find a god average.
The likes of infamous second son have 10k ratings on the store so would it make sense if that game had 500k downloads? Anyway this IMO is our best way to estimate digital sales for a game.
Destiny PS4 has around 6k ratings I think so that prob has a good 300k digital copies sold.

@bolded is the reason why this is NOT a good way to estimate digital sales.
