Sorry but that is not correct - I'm guessing that only a small percentage of those 'min' references are actually being used as an abbreviation of 'minute'??
eg. the first result is miniclip.com

Ok you guys are getting confused
Common sense tells us that:
PayPerMin would mean PayPerMinute
and not: PayPerChineseSurname
No, YOU are getting confused.
No one is disputing that. What they are saying is that the google stats that you posted as 'evidence' are based on incorrect assumption that a search for 'min' only provides results for sites that are using min to mean minute.
min can also be an abbreviation of other words e.g. minimum AND the search for 'min' provides results for sites containing 'min' as part of another word like mini or miniscule or mince etc etc etc.
