Recently (here) someone speculated about what category has the higher rate of NILs

Here is the answer (hope this lines up).  These are the average rates per category of entry.

CQWW CW 2015 (unassisted)

World Top 10 
           NIL          CNIL
QRP    0.57%      0.43%
LP       0.78%      0.94%
HP       0.51%      0.72%

USA Top 10% per category
           NIL          CNIL
QRP    0.68%      0.46%
LP       0.60%      0.37%
HP       0.63%      0.63%

Europe Top 10% per category
           NIL          CNIL
QRP    0.83%      0.62%*
LP       0.62%      0.52%
HP       0.69%      0.73%


* = one outlier (15.68%) removed from data

As a reminder a NIL is call you claimed but nothing close appears in the other guy's log.

A CNIL is NIL you caused in another log (He logged you, you didn't log him).
