I ran some scripts on a snapshot of list of subscribers a week ago and 
here is some information:

    Total addresses in the whitelist: 83131
    Number of unique domains:         19668

    Total domains which published any valid DMARC policy: 1398

    Total domains with p=reject DMARC policy: 243
    Total domains with p=quarantine DMARC policy: 167

    Email addresses with p=reject DMARC policy: 4773
    Email addresses with p=quarantine DMARC policy: 1370
