Hello Darren, For dbSNP, the only data table with allele frequencies is the table gwasCatalog, and that represents a tiny percentage of alleles (associated with disease). This is not going to help address your question.
However, there are other tracks with variation data that do contain allele frequencies. Using the human genomes hg18 or hg19, in the same track group as dbSNP "Variation and Repeats" see the Genome Variants track. Also in human, hg18, are other tracks that may be of interest. For example "HGDP Allele Freq - Human Genome Diversity Project SNP Population Allele Frequencies" and "HapMap SNPs - HapMap SNPs (rel27, merged Phase II + Phase III genotypes)". I hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to contact the help mailing list again if you require further assistance.
