I'd guess 50% are approved on first pass, 30% on second pass, and then the last 20% get into far more involved territory. Sometimes multiple revisions result from unrealistic client expectations, sometimes it's problematic mixes, sometimes it's bad/misread communication, sometimes it's opinions changing over the course of the session, and sometimes it's the mastering engineer having a really bad day (yes, I **** up now and then). I don't charge for revisions because I don't like playing that blame game -- just want to get it right.
