I have recently collated the data from the ten Saffron Walden, Colchester (and now Stirling!) singles tournaments since 2014.
Five most popular armies based on number of uses:
1 Chaos (16)
2 Orcs (13)
3 Dark Elves (10)
4= Dwarves & Tomb Kings (9)
And their performance based on average quartile position:
Dark Elves, 2.0
Chaos & Orcs, 2.7
Dwarves, 2.8
Tomb Kings, 3.0
For the other armies the limited number of uses skews the averages, but as the data grows they should become more usable.
Interesting factoid: the only WMR army not used in any of the ten tournaments = Vampire Counts.
Finally, I'm missing one set of results; the first Bunker Warmaster tournament in Colchester in January 2016. If anyone has a copy of them, please could you post them here or PM me. Thanks.

Awesome. Many thanks.

No VCs? Interesting...
... I am not sure what a typical VC list ought to look like but imagine that the high numbers of zombies and ghouls might be the issue. GW's models of these units are surprisingly hard to come by at all, never mind in quantity, and I have not yet found any decent proxies.
-
Vampire Counts - save the Skeletons - are a rarer army to get the old GW models for - and you need to spend a lot of time painting them as they are a lower point-per-unit army a bit like Tomb Kings.
I've got an unpainted VC army and every time I see how many models I would have to paint to make a proper 2000 points I get faint. =P

@Warlord_Chris & Stormwind, In some ways the two Undead armies should be some of the easiest to proxy. Fastest army I ever painted is here

Two for the price of one in that they can be used as Tomb Kings or VCs. Get some Saxons etc and you could easily do a LoTR-style one on similar lines. Luminous green ink fairly cheap from a stationers that did art supplies.

Nice army - I like the idea.
When I get around to it, I plan to have a mix of MM zombies, wights and other undead painted as zombies...
... plus a good mix of other mistake purchases / miscellaneous / spare models, to use them up productively :)
Undead should come in all shapes and sizes!
