I don't have exact numbers, but it's a fraction of the 0.27% of the asymmetric ones.  The vast majority of those were just agreements where one side had minimum terms (must meet in N locations, must exchange at least Y amount of data) and the other did not.  So, maybe 0.01% - 0.02%?  That's just an estimate, though.
