At least for the Prius Prime someone wrote a script to grab the data which you can peruse[1].
E.g., for 6/30/22 there were 113 LEs, 99 XLEs, and 18 Limiteds that weren't listed as presold on that spreadsheet.
I spot checked both by enumerating through Toyota's list of dealerships and emailing roughly 50 dealerships. Based on the response I'd say even in July only 10% of those numbers were actually available. And cut that in half once I let them know I was inquiring out of state.
Average markup over MSRP was probably 5k. (Outlier was 20k "market adjustment" :)
So regardless of whether people are making bad purchases, the market is exceedingly tight.
