Almost 1,000,000 accounts created by much less than 1,000,000 individuals.

Most of those are no longer active. An internet lifetime can sometimes be counted in seconds.

Much, much, much, much ... much, much, much less of those almost 1,000,000 accounts are premium.

Start here with this alphabetical list. Count the premium symbols for as many pages you have patience for. Multiply the pages by 50 accounts per page. 

Say you count the first two pages, or at random, and there are 11 premium symbols so thats 11 of 100. So we have very roughly 11% of the active players being premium members

There are currently about 83000 active players.

Today's Rank: #2 of 83,049 (99.9%)

11/100 * 83000 = 9130

Of course the more pages you count the better this estimate will be.

I suggest you do not count the pages sorted by rating or you will find way too many premium members at the start.

Members: 945,963  

Taking the estimate further we have 9130/943963 *100 = 0.96% of all accounts created are currently premium members. This percentage will approach but hopefully never reach zero.

To summarize this long post:

An estimated 11% of the active players are premium.

An estimated less than 1% of all the accounts ever created are currently premium. This figure is of no value.

The group chosen, I believe, provides the basis of a reasonable estimate. Unless you have different and accessible information, the premium to non-premium makeup of the non-CC'ers would be approximately the same as the CC players.
