This is the breakdown:

INFP: 8 (~31%)
INTP: 9 (~35%)
ENTP: 2 (~8%)
INTJ: 3 (~12%)
ISFP: 1 (~4%)
ISTJ: 1 (~4%)
DTPT: 1 (~4%)
ENTJ: 1 (~4%)

According to the test, INTP and INFP only make up 3 and 4 percent of the population, respectively.  So bay12 appears to have an usually high concentration of these people, I think.  Personally, I think INTP and INTJ seem to best capture the spirit of the average DF-playing person.

Edit: Also, I love that Tolkien quote on there so I have to sig it.

This test has 32 results, not 16.

What I thought...
But that the fifth measure is new to me, and makes it now 32 personality types(on the binary scale), unless they have made that a dimensionless measure entirely based upon the results of the classical four.)
...but INFP clearly appears in both -A and -T variations, so that isn't the explanation.  (That they decided to add -A/T to the original 16 types after marketing it as "16 types" is the obvious explanation.

I tried wrastling the BBCode required to do my own table(s) of results, so far, from Bay12ers (counts in bold, other information given when observed), but I don't think I got the counts right, the other information isn't prolific enough and it really needs table-borders around and across the sub-tables, which I can't seem to activate (colspan/rowspan would be handy, too...) but here it is anyway:

(The source BBCode is horrible, given the need to insert minimum unintended whitespace and therefore line-feeds, but it's easy enough to hunt down and insert/change the information based upon the ####-# placeholders.)

edited in a minor table tweak...
further tweaks to populate, and transferred Nunzillor, as per below, but counts probably still wrong...

Excellent chart!  To clarify, it said I was an INFP-T (currently marked on the chart as unspecified), if you have a desire to update it.

Well, if you have a look back, I now transferred your tally across, whilst filling in the sub-details1 but I bet the values are still wrong.  I'm not going to try to keep it updated, as there'll not be a statistically significant number of tallies, anyway...  I just started to prettify what was supposed to be a quick proof of concept, and it's done its job...  Feel free to copypaste it, anybody who wants to.  But not sure why you would.

1 "Sentinel" and "Explorer" could be moved to a single mention at the left of the last/penultimate rows, respectively and PM, SE, and both CIs could be applied to the appropriate columns, rather than repeating, but Analyst/Diplomat are 'square' (Analyst wraps-around) upon this particular truth-table format.

If you don't want to read all that and would rather have an anecdote, I took one of these (from another site) before, and the funny thing was, it couldn't decide whether to give me intj or intp. Retook it several times and it kept changing its answer.

They explain the whole -A and -T thing on this page, since it's not traditionally a part of the Meyers-Briggs thing.

I note that they also used different definitions?

That's cool.  It's incredibly depressing, however.  If that's accurate, the vast majority of us (INFP + INTP) are more likely to be unemployed and will make lower salaries, especially INFP.
