Safety Record: Heli v Fixed

Without wishing to set off the old hare, about helicopters being inherently dangerous, we have enough experience here to assess the safety record of helicopters since their invention.

What is the safety record of helicopters compared to fixed wing.

What's the least biased parameter to use for a measure?

Perhaps, reported accidents per hours flown, or fatalities per hours flown?
