It's possible that's the case. Linux servers are by far the most common on the internet, and servers account for the majority of 24/7 machines out there.

One thing that should be noted is that "manual attacks" are usually things like DDoS attacks, which are by definition no reflection on the stability or overall strength on the host OS.
