I think op is asking about classes imbalances, as in which classes are played the most and which are played the least.

To which I would answer : tanks are played the least. Then healers. Then dps. That's for archetype.

Specific classes that are needed in groups most often are : knight/chosen or WP/dok.

Melee classes > ranged classes. You should know this when choosing what to play.
Also destro is ez mode zerg vs door side whereas order is emo rage quit after 2 months side because outnumbered 24/7 in pvp lakes.

Classes that are not represented so much:
* well-played magi/engineers (majority try to play the class like a sorc/BW, or are roleplayers =P)
* good WLs (pounce isn't the only ability on your actionbar);
* Healing AMs/Shamans;
