UNHCR reported Friday (17 March 2006) that the "number of asylum seekers arriving in all industrialized countries has fallen by half" in the last five years. More details are provided in the complete report entitled "Asylum Levels and Trends in Industrialized Countries, 2005."
The Migration Information Source offers a Global Data Center which provides, among other things, figures for the "Annual number of asylum applications by nationality." Currently, the countries for which data are provided are located in Europe and North America; Australia is also included. A separate data tool allows users to "analyze the numbers and origins of asylum seekers over 24 years."
Links are provided to other statistical sources.
