The only statistically relevant numbers you need are the mass of the planet and the radius to the surface.

Take 2 planets with the same mass, one made of light fluffy marshmallow and another made of solid metal. They can both have the same amount of mass but because you're so much closer to the center of gravity on the lead planet, the experienced surface gravitation acceleration will be higher on the lead planet.
