It defaults to the US, so this is not a good indication.

It should really default to "Unknown", in the name of better statistics.

An interesting question, Mehdi, and I would also be curious about how many site members are expatriates living/working outside their country of birth. best, Bill (expatriate from the U$A aka MallBurgerLand)

Looking at the followup question (best time for site maintenance), I think the OP just wanted to know the geographical location of the users, not their nationality.
Watched code never compiles.

A geographic distribution chart is irrelevant! They could be anywhere. ;)

I was just wondering if CP needed to go down for maintenance, what would be an appropriate time based on the users geolocation and for how long that window would be open.

Does anybody (directed to the folks at CP) know of the geographic distribution of the 8 million members in CP?

Not necessarily, the actual time would be around 3-4 am nearest the most dense user area. I don't think we have anybody in the Pacific.
