"Today NGINX powers over 40,000,000 domains on the Internet"

I'd love to know where they got this stat from. I've indexed 130 million domains and 3.1 million of them use Nginx. Don't get me wrong that's an amazing total but if by domains they mean registered web domains (example.com etc..) then I'd love to know how they came to it.

This number probably comes from NetCraft Web Server Survey:

It indeed shows 43M "hostnames" as of Oct 2011.
