I don't know the proportions at all, didn't mean to imply the majority were.
However, it is a trend that there are a lot more people becoming independant and making their money online via various ways (not all of which are startups, most of which are probably what would be called "lifestyle businesses" here, though I hate that term) and thus not counted on the "employment rolls".

Basically, all of the hardship of being independent without the rewards. (think of freelance journalists working for peanuts, or often putting stuff out for free for "exposure," for instance)
