-----------------------
TOTAL FOR IPV4 BLOCKS:
Allocated: 9302367 (/24 blocks) - 63%
Not Allocated: 5377697 (/24 blocks) - 37%
Currently Routed: 6183529 (/24 blocks) - 42%
Not Routed: 8496535 (/24 blocks) - 58%
-----------------------
Simple math from above:
Allocated & Not Routed: 3118838 (/24 blocks) - 21%
This is from my data available at www.completewhois.com/statistics/
(which is for some reason partially broken right now - has all the
correct data but coloring of bars did not happen). The percent
calculation does not include class-d and class-e (i.e. only blocks
0/8 - 223/8 are counted).

Not easily observable means some ip blocks maybe used but are not
adverised in public BGP. This is a bit of an issue with certain
part of US Gov.
