I'm not sure I would consider WoW (a game with a monthly subscription and a 20+ GB client) to be a direct competitor with Farmville (a free-to-play game with a browser-based client). I suspect that they appeal to very different audiences.

You would only be partially correct. See this report we did at Raptr:

Specifically, ~20% of WOW players also played a Zynga game, and ~30% of XBox players also played a Zynga game.
