It is pretty simple.
D&D is still a hugely popular game.
However, it has gone from being alone on the mountaintop to sharing the spotlight.
And absolutely agreed that Amazon alone doesn't mean anything. Though I'm still amused that 4E fans who will insist that collections of data don't mean anything will then turn around and point at isolated data points and declare victory.
4E is very very popular. It will continue to be until 5E is announced.
If "it" is popularity, then D&D still has "it".
If "it" is *being the one 800 lb gorilla* then there seems to be quite a deal of reasonable doubt around that.
