For Steam games, there’s [a website](http://steamcommunity.com/stats/) where you can see the stats for all the achievements in those games. For instance, we can see that in [Team Fortress 2](http://steamcommunity.com/stats/TF2/achievements/), nearly half of all players have managed to rack up five kills in a row without dying, but only a half of a percent of all players have gotten 100,000 views for a YouTube movie.

Does Blizzard have something similar? I can find pages for achievements earned by particular individuals, but I can’t find one for stats on the community as a whole.

Dunno about as a whole, but there are guild-based achievements that you can see on each guild’s page online.

Blizzard does not publish the kind of statistics you are looking for. The only game-wide achievement tracking is done by third parties (either raid progress sites like [World of Logs](http://www.worldoflogs.com/zones/Firelands/) or independent research like [this](http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/2559-PTR-Release-Build-Class-Balance-and-Dragonwrath-Fan-Art-The-Daily-Blink)at mmo-champion).

Actually, I was more specifically wondering about Starcraft II achievements. I just figured that if they did them at all, they’d do them for all their games. Ah, well.
