According to my calculations, the App Store will get 10 billions downloads on 1/22

It should more precisely hit 10 billion downloads on 1/22 plus 14 hours (256 hours from this post)

But I say 1/22 because I must account for variable change. In this case, the variable change would be attributed to people buying at an increased rate as it gets closer to the deadline.

Someone made an approximate countdown here: http://tenbillionapps.com/

I timed the sequence, it seems 3 seconds per thousand, who knows if its delayed by hours weeks or days. It is differential. But somewhere around 3.25 hours from (10:15 pm PT 1/21/11) till 10million. Thats roughly 1:00am 1/22.
I think Ill be sleeping.
