Here's the stats from the last 12 weeks of mail on my personal machine - I host mail 
for 6 or 7 people:

Statistics for user sthomas:
   Total messages:    7425
     Avg Score:       15.91
     Avg Size:        5430
   Spam messages:     6200
     Spam Pct:        83.50%
     Avg Spam Score:  20.70
     Avg Spam Size:   5177
   Clean messages:    1225
     Avg Clean Score: -8.34
     Avg Clean Size:  6714



TOTALS:
39176 messages processed (177137123 bytes)
63.44% of them were spam (24855 messages, 136762874 bytes) 
3898 minutes and 31 seconds of time spent
2837 minutes and 29 seconds spent on spam
1061 minutes and 2 seconds spent on ham
5.97 seconds spent per message on average
15.53 is the average spam score
0.93 is the average ham score
10.19 is the average score overall


Early this week I started processing list mail also (previously, procmail was sorting 
those out without running them through SA first), so my spam:ham ratio has gone way 
down since. Here's the stats (just for my account) for this week:

Statistics for user sthomas:
   Total messages:    1592
     Avg Score:       -15.24
     Avg Size:        5289
   Spam messages:     516
     Spam Pct:        32.41%
     Avg Spam Score:  20.51
     Avg Spam Size:   5728
   Clean messages:    1076
     Avg Clean Score: -32.38
     Avg Clean Size:  5079


I'm sure there's a lot of people that can beat those numbers. I also run SA on our 
servers at work, but I don't run any stats on them. I'd guestimate that it's well over 
50% there, though.
