It absolutely depends what you are mining with.  Slower hardware will get more stale shares.

I have a 4650 that mines at about 22MH/s, and it gets 7% stale shares.  But my 5850 gets 0.36% stale shares.  Regardless, if you're using deepbit, he pays you for those stales anyway.

Oh, that's interesting.

My 5% rate was with a 5770 at around 150 MH/s

Perhaps the stale rate from Deepbit is so high because blocks are solved much quicker? 5% seems very high.

Yeah, that's what I'm realizing... O.o
