I don't know the percentage of blunders. It also depends on what you 
call a blunder. Is a 1 point mistake a blunder?

But on average it would seem that a player loses about 13 points per 
game per grade separation from perfect play (11d?), implied by the 
definition of grade difference in relation to compensation by handicap 
stones. I don't know what the distribution of these mistakes related 
to their size would be (it would be interesting to find out), but I 
suspect the small mistakes would be more numerous. 

For a 1d this would imply a loss of about 130 points over the course 
of about 130 moves played by him in a game. So on average he loses 1 
point per move. I would guess that a handful of mistakes would be big, 
but most moves lose just a little bit or nothing at all.
