Some characters in the SIP are more common in Chinese written in the HK SAR than any character in Extension A, either because they are Hong Kong toponyms (or the like), or are Cantonese-specific. (My own analysis of text on the Chinese Wikipediæ is that the most common are U+23D13, U+282E2, U+28B4E, and U+2A568, which occur seven times each.)
I imagine that the best data would come from Google.
And there are some Web sites out there in Deseret and Shavian, as well. (If nothing else, both Deseret and Shavian versions of xkcd are available. I'm not aware of any Linear B translations.)
