Note also that my terms relate to UK expectations of reliability.
Only DLR gets anywhere near to the levels of reliability delivered in
Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong. Regrettably I cannot see LU getting
to the standard of Asian metros for many years to come as it is a
real step change up from where the Tube is now or may even be post
upgrade - note this is my own opinion and not a LU company view (just
in case someone important is reading this ;-) )

I don't have detailed stats like Paul, but I had a couple of journeys
that were remarkable today for being perfect. My route involved Picc,
District and Jubilee trains, and on both the outbound and return
directions I didn't have to wait more than a minute for any of the six
trains. They did exactly what the TfL journey planner said they would.
They weren't over-crowded or dirty, there were no delays and no problems
(though one of the Jubilee Line drivers got irate on the PA when a
passenger apparently tried to interfere with the doors as we entered
Waterloo station). If only this perfect performance was the norm,
instead of the exception!
