Read Fr. Cozzens book, it's not long and is recent. The estimate was made on research he conducted, not just a guess. It's scary and is consistent with the story told in "Goodbye, Good Men".

There are others who have done research as well. Cozzens research shows high numbers, other show low. Research into the homosexual population gives us CONSERVATIVE figures of 2 to 2.5% in the general population. That's half of what Cozzens estimates. Based on this he may be too high for those figures he states about the priesthood. His figures are the highest I've seen.

Regardless of what the figures...1% is too high.
