Do many people say "One of the most xxx"?

In most cases they only mean "very".

"One of the most" without a range (among 10? 100?) is pointless. I am surely one of the most handsome guys, among 25 billion ones.

I found this is said a lot more frequent in the US?

In many other countries I don't know their languages, but translations don't suggest such an idea.

I noticed one phrase many British and Irish people like to use is " You know what I mean". I have been watching British tv show and they are using this phrase too often.
Then, my co-worker from Ireland also love to use that phrase. Oh dear:p
