Backgammon is game of skill

Of the 115,500 games, we know that Random scored 4,744 points. But some of those may be gammons. How many games were actually won? It seems to set an upper bound of 4% but I wonder what it is really?

Somehow, I am feeling that DMP matches would be more enlightening than cubeless money games. The brain dead opponent simply doesn't know to run off the backgammon, etc. and is clouding the picture. Similarly, are all of the games lost by 1-ply backgames where it got gammoned? It would be good to really know how often the bot can win if that is all it is trying to do.
