Interesting...  According to their own "Top Email Senders by Domain",
13 out of 25 domains publish SPF records and zero domains publish SID.

Yesterday:
SPF:  6195 out of 27775 IPs (22.3%)
SID:     0 out of 27775 IPs (none)
DKIM: 3983 out of 27775 IPs (14.3%)

Last 30 days:
SPF:  9948.36 out of 33108.3 (30.0%)
SID:     0    out of 33108.3 (none)
DKIM: 4031.68 out of 33108.3 (12.2%)

Perhaps more companies published a SID record but according to their
own stats this is not significant.

I'm going to count their spf1 and spf2 records as well.  WIP.

I wouldn't bother - they only have 38,125 spf records listed, a tiny fraction of the 1,000,000 or so that are out there. And because of their need to identify the bad-guys, they are probably skewed to be looking more at spammers than a genuinely representative sample, so the results are hardly significant.
