I ran a web bug for a reasonably popular generic Dutch site for a  
while, and I discovered that around 0.16% of all requests (that's  
about 1 in 666) happened over IPv6.

Counting AAAA requests isn't very reliable, as some software performs  
these requests even if the system has no IPv6 connectivity. I believe  
Firefox does this unless IPv6 support is turned off. (It's turned on  
by default on nix and Win, off on Mac.)
