Does anybody have any idea what proportion of Mr Loopholes clients are successfully defended??

Dunno.
Quite high though.
High enough for a personal website:

As a successful lawyer with a team, he has to be paying for all of that somehow.
The reality of course, whether you win or loose those fees still have to be paid, whether by the tax payer or directly by the client.
I would ask them directly how many cases he wins ?
Why do you want to know ? Why do you ask ?

It would be really good to have a 'recommend a solicitor/lawyer' website, where you can say how you were treated and whether they did a good/bad job etc etc. I certainly have a few I would never recommend !
The law society is woefully inadequate and the whole system bias when dealing with problems with solicitors?

The last time there was a news article about him, I think it was reported that only 3 of his clients had been found guilty. So the percentage would be over 99 but less than 100.

He lost this one

Won loads though....

He was on BBC Breakfast program one morning this week ( think it was Mon/Tuesday) .He did mention winning a lot ( can't remember the exact %). He actually has registered the name "Mr Loophole" .His reason was to stop other people from giving out advice under the name ,and giving him a bad name . He also mentioned that he doesn't look for loopholes, but bad practices in the CPS system ,hoping that ones he exposes lack of procedure ,it might ensure that defendants get more of their rights .
Had a look for the program on iPlayer, but it seems it's not available .

Well done on the ceremony handshake. I am sure your plaque looked splendid too !

Governments make Laws to order the way in which a society behaves.
When someone 'goes to Law' about something, they ask a court to decide if it was done legally.
So the layman is usually better represented by someone who understand the Court system/s, this also helps the Courts time, as procedures do not have to be explained.
It is human nature to try to benefit from a situation and the Court system is no different.
Problems can occur when the balance of Court decisions is more persuaded one way or another, and it may result in justice not being served and the public failing believing that the system has failed to do its job properly.
The Court and justice is open to this vulnerability.
Understandably some persons with intricate knowledge of the Court system, may use that to their benefit and for their clients benefit, whether that be on the side of the Prosecution or the Defense.

He did mention on BBC Breakfast that he started out as prosecution, but then decided to switch sides.
