What percentage of users use browsers that don't send referrer data at all?

All the current up-to-date major browsers can be set not to send a referrer, even my mobile web browser. Lots of misinformed people feel this is proactive security.

Don't know the exact percentage, and surely it's different for each site, but I see several dozen, maybe a couple hundred empty referrers from unique valid human visitors each day that I look for things like that. But I have no reason to keep track since I allow blank/empty referrers in my anti-hotlinking code.
