3. 1280x800 (8.83%)
4. 1920x1080 (8.39%)
5. 1280x1024 (7.51%)

As you can see, our #2 resolution is still 1024x768, which I would argue is a result of an older demographic for the most part. Whereas a lot of people, especially younger people, are gamers, they're far more likely to have larger screen resolutions. Those with older computers, and thus older resolutions, tend to not upgrade anywhere near as often.

I know a lot of people ignore 1024 resolutions these days. For us, even though it is only 11%, when you take 11% of a couple of million users, that adds up. From a business perspective, I'm not about to ignore a demographic of a couple of hundred-thousands users. And I'd certainly not ignore IE anytime soon. We accommodate IE back to IE7 where possible.
