I haven't done this in forever.

STEP ONE: List your top twenty most scrobbled artists and the total number of listeners for each.

1. Goldfrapp (1,309,162 listeners)
2. Kylie Minogue (1,418,157 listeners)
3. Lady GaGa (2,535,426 listeners)
4. 浜崎あゆみ (243,917 listeners)
5. Tori Amos (1,002,820 listeners)
6. Britney Spears (2,217,258 listeners)
7. Madonna (2,159,855 listeners)
8. Kate Bush (744,435 listeners)
9. Florence + the Machine (976,480 listeners)
10. Milla (25,933 listeners)
11. Björk (1,592,023 listeners)
12. Dragonette (310,350 listeners)
13. Sarah Slean (153,908 listeners)
14. Ke$ha (1,528,227 listeners)
15. Emilie Autumn (231,847 listeners)
16. Enya (911,952 listeners)
17. Lily Allen (1,482,851 listeners)
18. Glee Cast (461,037 listeners)
19. 植松伸夫 (263,616 listeners)
20. Imogen Heap (1,097,251 listeners)

STEP TWO: Calculate the total listeners of these artists.

TOTAL: 20,666,505

STEP THREE: Find the average of this total by dividing by 20.

AVERAGE: 1,033,325.25

STEP FOUR: Divide this figure by the total number of listeners for the top scrobbled artist on Last.fm.

Top artist: Radiohead (3,437,676 listeners)
MAINSTREAM: 0.3005883189689779

STEP FIVE: Finally, multiply this by 100 and round off to get your mainstream percentage.

MAINSTREAM PERCENTAGE: 30.05883189689779

My listening habits are 30.06% mainstream.

Strange, I thought I had gotten way more mainstream but I guess not.
