Ok, lets open this up then for opinion, it will be an interesting debate if nothing else.

Take a word like "internet.com"

If Japanese = 1.00

what does Chinese = ??
Russia = ??
Arabic = ??

my guess would be:

Chinese = 0.85
Russia = 0.50

You have to consider extension as well. .com is very strong for Arabic, strong for Chinese, moderately strong for Japanese. At the other end of the spectrum, .com is rarely used in Greece and even more so in Israel where .gr and .il takes almost all market share respectiviely. Russian comes in between.
