Any dream-related statistics out there?

Trying to find any results from studies or surveys like what percentage of people dream, how many want to dream more often, do people want more vivid dreams?

I'm NOT looking for "what does this dream mean?" OR anything about lucid dreaming...there's hundreds of sites for that. Thank you!

Answer:
Check out this website:

http://library.thinkquest.org/11189/nffa...

According to that, everyone dreams its just that not everyone recalls. And just about everyone recalls the dream if woken in REM sleep, but those woken in non-REM sleep have a 15% chance of recalling.

You may also consider looking at scholarly articles, for example this one:

http://www.fas.umontreal.ca/psy/zadra/no...

In particular you can also look at the references section to get new articles on the topic. The reference section of the article on that site includes an article called "How often do adults recall their dreams", and several articles on "attitudes toward dreams" that may be just what you're looking for.
