As a data nut I am always interested in such things. Look forward to your source of information as well. Thanks in advance for sharing.

Worldwide: 26,182,117
America: 12,701,623 (48.51%)
Japan: 5,532,619 (21.13%)
Europe: 7,797,475 (29.78%)
Based on those numbers the majority of the games population is not from the US.
Regardless tho it's hard to find real data on this, especially with people who don't have a Lodestone profile etc.
This is also accounts I believe and not active players.

It doesn't really change anything even if say the US playerbase made up for 51%.
It's still a Japanese studio and it's still ridiculous to expect them to reschedule things because there's a holiday in the US.
