According to the statistics page on the Cloud Market, which claims to be "the most complete catalog of Amazon EC2 images", images using Ubuntu as the base platform have the largest share in their catalog.

When one looks at their graph by owner, it can also be seen that:

• Combining Alestic (which are Ubuntu images) and Canonical's officials images, Ubuntu is by far the largest respresented set
• Canonical's images have the fastest growth rate

Again, all stats like this need to be take with a pinch of salt, specially since we have very little details on how these statistics are collected, but once more, this tends to show that Ubuntu is taking a strong lead as a great OS for cloud purposes.
