It is impossible to quantify the worst typeface. I think there are good typefaces and bad typefaces. It is very black and white. I will do a percentage. 98% of the free fonts you can get are all complete crap.

hmm...well, that is a tough question...cause I dont pay for the bad ones. Lets do this. Adobes type collection is thousands of fonts. You have to pay for the whole bundle. I would say 50% of that is crap, and 50% is usable.

The funny thing about some pay typefaces is, they suck ass yes...but you can find a free copy of them that sucks just as bad.
