For those who don't want to deal with a .xls spreadsheet, I grabbed it, added a couple helpful columns (accounts per request and requests per 100m population), took a screen capture, and uploaded the PNG to imgur.com.

The US has the most total requests, by far, but is only 5th when population is considered. Here are requests per 100m population:

   11869 Hong Kong
    8434 Taiwan
    5234 Germany
    4386 Italy
    4030 United States

    1584 Spain
     457 Argentina
     370 Ireland
