You're asking the wrong questions :) Is it a significant portion of accounts? Yes. There are thousands of free accounts and about 600 paying. But do people who actually use their free accounts stay free? No, at an overwhelming rate, they upgrade. Something like 30-50% of all free accounts with more than 5 time entries upgrade.

Most free accounts are drive-bys or people who are merely curious. I'm also looking into ways to capture some of them, convince them to get over the hump to actually trying it, but I don't worry about how many accounts are free vs paid any more.
