For what is worth, I actually expect absolute usage numbers to confirm your thesis. It's US after all, I expect a younger demographic for the 360 with more time on their hands.

For absolute numbers you should ask the source of this survey. But why do expect a younger demographic? Because it would fit better to usage-fractions? Perhaps based on a former survey?

Eh, I expect that information to not be free right at the moment. That's Nielsen, they sell the integral version of their reports.
As for the age groups, if I remember correctly earlier surveys showed younger 360 players. I'm googling for them, but I only found really old stuff:
