Of all of the hundres of thousands of apps to inhabit the App Store’s shelves over the years, these are the most-downloaded ever. And yes, a fart app made the cut. Along with some other surprises.

Aside from iFart Mobile anchoring an… unusual paid iPad app list (especially given the completely different Top Paid iPad Apps of 2010 list Apple released in December), there are a few other mentionables here: Tap Tap Revenge takes two slots in the paid iPhone app category, while Google Mobile and Google Earth both make strong free app showings. And everybody, naturally, loves Pandora.

Oh, and the color blue. That’s apparently a crucial part of being a MegaHit app.

If you think popular equals good—or are just looking for a decent fart simulator—go download these, or head over to our own list of Giz-approved essential apps.
