Statistics about Android devices with MIPS processors [closed]

mips

I use native libraries in my project. I have build them for ARM, ARMv7 and x86 architectures and just wonder if I should build them for MIPS too? Where can I find any statistical information about what part of Android devices run on MIPS processors. I want to understand if it has a meaning to make my APK larger in 4 - 5 MB because of the MIPS libs.

APK file size: Maximum supported size is 50MB.

You should not have any problems.

As to device with MIPS I found only 2 official devices. Maybe it will be better to create this apk without this lib with other package name.
