No need to blindly trying to click all links.  You can open the file
`info/elisp' and count all strings that start with "Ref:"
(they are anchors that put the cursor to a mid-node position).

There are 66 lines with "Ref:" (that fail to go directly to the
appropriate place) and 839 lines with "Node:" (that succeed since
they put the cursor to the beginning of the node).

The ratio of 66 to 839 is 8%.  So you guess of 10% is closer to the
actual percentage.
