If you would have to guess, how many recreational players versus how many grinders would you estimate are playing on pokerstars at various stakes?

In the tourneys I'd guess 90% or more recreational. In the cash games perhaps 50/50, maybe even higher (65-75%) for the grinders.

At the micro stakes you won't find many grinders, maybe 1-5 % I'm guessing, and those are most likely just trying something out. At the high stakes, for example at 5000 NL, I would say 95-99% grinders. At 50 NL and 100 NL, I estimate it to be about 50-50.
