Does anyone know whether there is a ready >source for these figures? Would, for example, Variety or Hollywood Try the book "Reel Facts" (out of print) which has listings of such figures up to its pub date in the mid-80s. It's derived from year-end figures published by Variety which means that it only covers that year (and not total rentals for a title) and that films with a limited year-end release may show up the following year. I should note that I've sometimes found that these figures conflict with other sources such as biographies which may be attributable to the yearly or total differences.
