According to my studies it's used in around 0.1% of the Web's pages. One in every thousand pages isn't bad, given how few pages could be expected to be defining terms; In particular, it's used more than <ins>, <del>, <var>, <samp>, <bdo>, etc. Then again, it's used less than <blink>, <bgsound>, <marquee>, <spacer>.
