I just made a corrected version of the previosly mentioned visualization using ActionScript. I tried a few map projections and decided to use the Winkel III projection which has a few advantages over the Mercator projection. One of them is the accaptable area distortion of countries near the poles. All data is taken from internetworldstats.com.
