Most sites in English, and even that is doubtful.

There's a full world out there of people and businesses using ccTLD like .fr, .nl, .co.uk, .hr, .rs, .es, .jp...

With "only" 46.5% of all domains being ".com" I guess you are technically correct. When the next highest TDL (.org) rings in at only 5.1%, I think we can agree the the overwhelming majority of sites are based on .com.

Of the TDL you mention the top one is .jp at less than 2%. If you remove the qualifier under the .uk TLD you get an additional 2%. The rest don't make the chart.
