It seems the results for the 2009 Christmas number one, may have been leaked after a blog post revealed the full Christmas top 40 earlier.

The Christmas chart has been correct right down from 40 to 20, with the following list the top 20.  The figures at the end of each are the total sales figures, which shows that Rage Against The Machine managed to beat X Factor’s Joe McElderry by over 50,000!

Judging by the download charts on iTunes and Amazon over the last few days, it has placed RATM at the top and this chart does go on to confirm the huge amount of support they’ve received.
