I don't think it pops up always.. I get the uninstal, the OK button that it was uninstalled, and back to my Manage apps page. I seldom see it actually. I am surprised however that we can't access that data. What's the point of even asking why someone uninstalled a specific app? I suppose google uses the info to determine why.. but it's less useful to them than to us developers.
So how do developers figure out install/uninstall rate? I always see in the market 1000-5000, 100,000-250,000 etc etc. Does that number mean unique installs.. or does that count for anyone who has reinstalled it? Especially on free apps where you can keep on installing/uninstalling it over and over. There are many apps for like $2, or more, that claim > 250,000 installs.. that's some good money! I want to be part of that lol.
