I can guess the answer, but does anyone have any statistics showing
spammers actually beginning to comply with the CAN-SPAM act?

To answer your question, "no". In fact, I have seen a huge increase in
spam in the past few months, and the percentage of spam that even attempts
to comply with the I-CAN-SPAM act is well under 1%. I haven't bothered to
do the stats, I just notice when I look at the glurge that makes it thru my
filters that every now and then (once a month or so, out of the 10s of
thousands of spams I get each month) I get an email that doesn't have
forged headers, has what appears to be valid opt-out instructions, etc.
