Axis titles will help distinguish the number and   percentage of downloads.
 

  Add a primary value axis title and type Number of Downloads. Add a secondary value axis   title and type Percentage of Monthly Downloads. Apply Black, Text 1 font color   to both value axis titles.

  Apply 11 pt font size to the category axis, value axis, and the legend for   the bar chart.

Because   the largest value is less than 9,000, you can reduce the  maximum bound in the   chart. In addition, you want to display the  category labels in the same order   that they are in the worksheet.
 

  Change the maximum bounds for the value axis to 9000 and set the Major Units to 500  for the bar chart. Use the Axis   Options to format the category axis  so that the category labels are in   reverse order in the bar chart.

Although the bar chart displays major gridlines,   minor gridlines could improve the appearance.
 

  Add primary minor vertical gridlines to the bar chart.
