Now, this counting doesn'tt weighing the results towards the matches that dominated the best/worst voting. Here's something with that:
If you take a proportion of best/worst votes over total votes for the PPV: i.e. 112 votes for Bound For Glory; 46 votes for Hardy/Aries as best match = 0.41 points for Jeff Hardy and Austin Aries.
Scores:
CM Punk: 6.80 out of 13 shows (very high)
AJ Styles: 4.80 out of 11 shows (very high)
Kurt Angle: 4.80 out of 11 shows (very high)
Christopher Daniels: 3.39 out of 11 shows
Daniel Bryan: 3.39 out of 13 shows
John Cena: 3.35 out of 13 shows

The PPV that didn't have a Punk match listed in the Best match poll? He was actually in the running for worst match --
WWE VENGEANCE PPV POLL RESULTS: Miz & R-Truth vs. Punk & Miz 10
I only had 12 WWE PPVs listed and I knew I should have 13 - found the missing show: WWE TLC.
WWE TLC PPV POLL RESULTS
Thumbs up 85 (84.2%)
Thumbs down 0 (00.0%)
In the middle 16 (15.8%)
BEST MATCH POLL
Punk vs. Del Rio vs. Miz 99
WORST MATCH POLL
Beth Phoenix vs. Kelly Kelly 40
Big Show vs. Mark Henry 35
HHH vs. Kevin Nash 26
So, another best match honors for Punk.
I should point out that if more than one match was listed as BEST MATCH, they both were given credit - ditto with WORST MATCH. That shortcoming was sort of the premise behind the points system I noted at the end of my post - it's an attempt to attribute who had the majority of the votes for best match per show.
In my mind, this is a pretty strong story for Best North American Wrestler for CM Punk.
Yes, the issue of who gets most time is certainly skewed towards "main eventers"... for the most part (look at Santino)..
Average time per match (Ranked)
1. CM Punk
2. Chris Jericho
3. Triple H
4. John Cena
5. Alberto Del Rio
6. Santino Marella
7. The Miz
8. R-Truth
9. Randy Orton
10. Daniel Bryan
11. Kane
12. Dolph Ziggler
13. Kofi Kingston
14. Sin Cara
15. Sheamus
16. Cody Rhodes
17. the Big Show
18. Christian
19. Jack Swagger
20. Mark Henry
notes: I didn't include Rumble and I didn't time out for Elimination matches to allocate time
