No one has an absolute estimaton in percentages. But it's not very common.
In spring you get some wierd mutations, and i have seen, only once, a triple trapped leaf. But double traps are more likely to occur.

But as Stitz25b said, no one really knows why.

If you have hundreds of Dionaea, your may be likely to see double traps maybe every few springs.
