Plain auto      60%
manual          20%
spot              15%
S.W.A.G.        5%

Most of my shooting easily falls into the "normal lighting" bucket, so I
just leave the exposure to the camera unless I have some specific special
effect in mind.  Almost all flash is auto TTL.  For scenes that will clearly
fool averaging metering, I switch to manual and spot, frequently both, back
and forth, and judge the final settings.  I guess sans remorse <g>.
