I would think I should still see accepted shares as rarely are they blocks on a pool. I avg 450 accepted shares per hour on a pool like Nano, so I was expecting to see similar results solo mining.
You should read the theory of pool operation to understand the whole thing.
A miner calculates a "checksum" of data in the block using some hashing algorithm. The result is a very long number. To solve a block this number must be lesser than some value called target. Target depends on the speed of finding blocks by the whole network and adapts so the average rate of new blocks is constant regardless of number of miners in the network. That is, more miners - more hashpower - lesser target - harder to find a block solution.
When you mine with a pool, pool sets target for miners much higher than actual target for the block solution. So miners with low hash rates can find at least something in reasonable time frame. Those solutions are called "shares" because they do NOT solve a block. But pool can estimate miner hashrate by the rate of submitted shares. Finally some share from some miner will be smaller than a block solution. This share will solve the block, but usually miner does not know that it was its share (some pools like suprnova and pool.mn report block founders, though, for stats).
Now compare the typical target from a pool: 0x0000000112e0be82 (4611686018) with your target 0x000000000006f3f2 (455666). 4611686018/455666 ~= 10120. This means that in solo mode only 1 of 10120 such pool shares will solve a block. If your miner finds 100 shares per hour, you need 101 hour to find a solution in solo mode. Until that you will not see any shares in solo mode. You see only block solution.
