Wiki - which I don't hold much faith in, but it's a start:
"The A-8 was the most numerous of the Fw 190 As, with over 6,550 A-8 airframes produced from March 1944 to May 1945. A-8s were produced by at least eight factories during its lifetime"
"A total of 1,805 D-9s were produced.[Rodeike 1998, p. 381.] Production started in August 1944"

From http://www.vectorsite.net/avfw190.html

"The next subvariant, the "FW-190A-8", turned out to be the most heavily produced of all FW-190 subvariants, with over 1,300 built."
(a hugely different number than that given by Wiki, but they both agree the A8 was the most prodiced.

continued from vectorsite:
"The Dora-Nine was produced in good numbers, but Nazi Germany was falling apart by that time; there were few pilots, there was little fuel. Many of the FW-190D-9s built never saw combat, and in any case they were too few to have any influence on the course of the war. Those that did see action were often used as "top cover" for airfields operating the Messerschmitt Me-262 jet fighter, whose poor acceleration made it highly vulnerable during landings"
heres the anton numbers for all types, trying to dig out the dora numbers now. EDIT, done see below





your link for 1805 dora 9's seems correct



Safe to say that the Dora 9 was not the most produced 190, lol.

got the numbers for other doras and Ta's as well, if anyones interested.
