It would be impossible to do this as its anonymous when creating a bitcoin client. The only way of doing this would be to have a built in survey in all clients and that would be impossible.

Demographics would be impossible but a run through the block chain would reveal all wallets and the amount in them. That would give you a wallet distribution. I'm not sure the value since it will just make me feel poor.

No it would not.

Address =/= Wallet.

A wallet consists of one or more addresses. My wallet has >3,700 addresses used. Please look through the blockchain and find all 3,700 addresses.

You could make a distribution of addresses but since an individual can have any number of addresses it would be next to useless.

A distribution of wallet balances is impossible.
