One App Developer Responsible for 47,000 Apps in BlackBerry World? 13 years ago
Could it be that maybe there's some kind of quirk in the BB API that turns out to be conducive to developing BlackBerry apps in a declaritive fashion?
So like, what if you dump a bunch of API calls into a table, and then aggregate the varying permutations with a SQL query, and wrap it all up in appropriate XML markup, programatically, and the call each variant an "app"?
The reason I'm pondering this, is because I think Microsoft has a similar situation, where even something as trivial as an RSS feed might be counted among the "app" statistics:

...and then there's also Firefox OS to consider. Where do you draw the line between an "app" and somebody's crappy web page?
