You should ask yourself:
1) Where else can people grab Python on Windows?
2) Where else can people grab Python for [every other operating system]?

Most distros are kind enough to provide their own mirror, I would say 
that easily accounts for the discrepancy since I am not aware of any 
other place to grab a windows install.
