I think this speaks more to the ethnocentric bias of americans, just assuming that everyone else in the world has an income strata roughly similar to our own.

I think you used ambiguity in your question and I'm not entirely sure your numbers add up. I don't have time to look into it atm but a very brief search showed the top .7% of the world's population earned over $1,000.000...so they would get $50,000 per year.

That can't be right the US has ~250K people who make >$1million. Less than .1% of the US Pop. I found Aella's source for $32.400 figure http://www.globalrichlist.com/

It's a bit of a 'gotcha' question because the world is based on nation states. Not sure how helpful it is in terms of thinking about inequality.

That's what I'm getting at, it's a trick question, based on the fact that we're likely to automatically think on the basis of our own nation state rather than globally because that's how the world is organised.
