I don't know the percentages offhand, but you might be able to compile
some statistics for Germany (and other German-speaking countries) by
browsing the station listings at:

http://www.ukwtv.de/sender-tabelle/index.html

These are sorted according to L?nder, and unless a station is listed
as an AFN (Armed Forces Network) or Power Network affiliate, or an
"Auslandssender" such as BBC, NPR or Radio France, the jocks are
likely to be speaking German -- but playing a bunch of
English-language hits.
