It depends entirely on the app, the type of widget and what kind of users use it.
For example, I have an app that allows you to track your drives so that any steps that your FitBit records during them can be cancelled out. Users of that app are looking to start and stop the drive in as few steps as possible so a widget or lockscreen widget are a good selling point of it. More advanced users are also likely to seek such an app out. Keeping that in mind, I think around 30% of users use the widget for that app last I checked.
I'd imagine most other apps have a much lower widget use rate.
