I recently became aware of a very useful site "OFFSTATS" - Official Statistics on the Web (http://www.library.auckland.ac.nz/subjects/stats/offstats/) - from the University of Auckland Library in New Zealand.
This site organizes free statistics from official sources -- governments and large international organizations such as the United Nations. From the main page you can get a list: 1) by country (A-Z); 2) by Region (e.g., Arab States, Latin America, etc.); or 3) by a list of topics such as banking, climate, or trade. Most (not all) sites are in English; many offer downloadable text or data files. Because the sites are limited to official statistics, there is not a lot of junk to sort through.
Very user-friendly!
