So, what percentage of the volume/outflow from those same proxies was 
"non-malicious"?

Surely you're making the mistake of categorizing the neighborhood, when you 
should be categorizing the people?

By comparison: what percentage of the world's SMTP is spam? What percentage of 
the world's HTTP is filesharing?

If you're not looking at the whole picture, you are making a "one bad apple" 
mistake - amplified, because Tor rotates their occasional bad apples around 
exit nodes just like everyone else.
