For what it's worth, as part of work on the effects of DNS on Tor's anonymity [1] we visited Alexa top-1M in April 2016, recording all DNS requests made by Tor Browser for each site. We found that 6.4% of primary domains (the sites on the Alexa list) were behind a Cloudflare IPv4-address. However, for 25.8% of all sites, at least one domain on the site used Cloudflare. That's a big chunk of the Internet.
