This article is very accurate. Everyone in mainland uses pinyin daily for inputs. Only the older generation uses hand wiring for inputs.

I don't know the stats but 3 out of 10 people I know use Wubi for input instead of Pinyin. Wubi needs to be learned from the ground up but is faster to type by a half.
