If by "divert" you mean not completing the flight as intended, and landing somewhere other than the original desitnation, then it's about ten times a year for me - but that's because I fly gliders and sometimes the energy in the sky dies away and I land in a field or find an alternate airfield. That's the thing about gliding...we spend quite a bit of time choosing fields to land in.
