Percentage wise, is it really that much different than for CW? Outside of a major contest things seem comparatively dead to me on CW as well.

I run an RBN node near Baltimore, MD spotting both CW and RTTY 160-12M. During any normal weekend day, I'll spot maybe 1 RTTY station an hour.  A big contest goes on the air (like this weekend) , and suddenly I'm spotting 300-400 RTTY signals per hour.  I guess my question is, where do they go the rest of the time?
