You can pretty easily figure out how many advertised prefixes are intentional de-aggregates, and you can get a fairly good idea as to how many of them are for TE as well I expect, by looking for different AS paths.

Someone mentioned some slides earlier in this thread by Vince Fuller at APRICOT early '07 that from memory have pretty good data on this.
