omnibus (survey)
It IS called an omnibus or an omnibus survey. Having worked in market research for 12 years now I am sure that this is a standard term.
An omnibus survey is a method of quantitative marketing research where data on a wide variety of subjects is collected during the same interview. Usually, multiple research clients will provide proprietary content for the survey, while sharing the common demographic data collected from each respondent.

: "omnibus survey" seems to be very common, but almost exclusively used on UK sites (e.g http://www.statistics.gov.uk/STATBASE/Source.asp?vlnk=657)
