Not sure I understand this ?

Did you mean IE 9.0 was the most popular IE version?  (This is the first to support SVG)

or

"About 4% of the total logged http requests for the past few days were from IE 6/7/8 " Does this
mean that of these 4%, IE8 is the most popular?

Are the version of other browsers Chrome, Opera etc new enough to work with SVG?
