Lately, more than I should. But I've also been very aggressive on my second serve to force points.

Maybe 5-6?

Depends on my opponent and the strategy im using. Average returner, 1-3; good returner, 5-8,(or more if it's a really bad day for me).

Around 5 or 6, but It's because I'm developing an american twist serve for my 2nd serve and it just goes short. It still feels awkward, especially because when I bend my knees, I keep my back perpendicular to the ground, and not "straight", if you know what I mean. Just to tell you, my slice serves have better consistency than my top spin ones...

If I ever commit a fault on a flat serve, it's just a bad toss or that I lost my balance when serving, if not, it almost certainly goes in.

one or two, I serve with mostly spin though not too much pace so I can understand how somebody would usually have more than that.

5-8. prolly towards the upper part of that. i'm hitting more spins to lower that, lately i've been hitting around 4 or less.

Maybe you should say per set instead of per match which could be 1 set... 3 sets... 5 sets?

Zero.

I have a 1st serve percentage that's low, around 25% because I smash it, but my 2nd serve is probably less than 10 mph, and as a result if I ever double faulted in a real match... that would be freaking sad.

I'm pretty inconsistent these days. Some matches I'll only have 1 or two double faults the whole match. Other times, I'll hit 9-double faults in a single game. I'm not kidding. Ace. Double fault. Serve returned out. Double fault. etc. That's really terrible.

Somewhere between 0 and 4. I voted 1-4 because there is no way I could honestly say that I never double fault in any match I play.

In matches when I'm really confident and winning by a fairly large margin, it's much less likely I'll DF. Under pressure, my serve certainly doesn't crumble but, as with most people, a few mistakes can creep in.

Me, it's be closer to 0-4 also.
Against a weak returner, maybe ZERO...
Against an aggressive returner who beating the pants off me, maybe 4.
