There aren't any reliable stats, but the best approximations are that
Sendmail, Postfix, Exim and qmail are the most common Open Source
MTAs, in that order. Postfix is particularly common on small/medium
installations as it's relatively secure (compared to Sendmail) by
default and the standard installation is pretty good for most
purposes. However, Exim is much more common on "enterprise level"
servers (ie, those used by ISPs, large webhosts, etc) because it's
more flexible than Postfix and more secure than Sendmail.

So, if you're specifically comparing Postfix and Exim, it's probably
true to say that Postfix is found on more servers, but Exim handles
more mail overall. The same is true when comparing Exim and Sendmail -
Sendmail is on a lot of servers because it's still the default MTA on
a lot of Linux installations, but most of those will be small webhosts
that don't send or receive much mail. Administrators of machines that
do handle significant amounts of mail will usually install Postfix or
Exim instead.
