Google offers a handy tool for estimate the traffic on a given keyword / search phrase.

If I fill in a price in the system that makes me #1 in the Adwords traffic estimate tool it estimates the numer of clicks and the average price for that:

example: widgets, all countries, all languages, my bid $ 1,16 shows that I will receive 80 clicks per day.

On what CTR does Google calculate that number of clicks? Is the average CTR for #1 in Adwords 5% - 8% or 10%

My goal is to determine the market of that particular keyword, so if google expects 80 clicks calculated on 10% that will mean the market is 800 searches a day...

Any real time experiences with traffic estimates vs real traffic stats...

Think roughly 2%.
