ICANN has some stats that claim that 30% of users use resolvers that
perform DNSSEC validation.  https://ithi.research.icann.org/graph-m5.html#currentId4

It's harder to find stats on how many names are signed. I know it
hugely varies depending on incentives. I gather a whole lot of .SE is
signed because they had some kind of promotion and they made it really
easy to do.
