Actually (and I sure wish this was a topic upon which one could not start a sentence with "Actually"...) according to most sources I could find thats around the middle of the range of estimates for what percent of children are sexually abused.
In the US for example CDC says 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 13 boys [1]. The National Center for Victims of Crime says 1 in 5 and 1 in 20 for girls and boys, respectively [2]. The Rape, Abuse, & Incest Network says 1 in 9 girls and 1 in 20 boys [3].
Globally, Wikipedia cites a paper that says it is 19.7% for girls and 7.9% for males [4].
