From videos I've seen, orcs are the least played, then the beast races, then the elves, then the humans.

I Role played an Orc who travelled from stronghold to stronghold, mining. He would stay at Inns along the way and drink his profits. Preferred fist-fighting.

I played him for about 20 levels. It was fun.

probably the least used races to me would be the orcs, kahjiit and wood elves

I love Bosmer.. especially with Hunterborn. Sometimes I make ' em so they only eat raw meat... nom nom.

Personally, I was never a fan of any if the human races, nor the Bosmer.
I play almost exclusively as Argonians, Khajiits and Orcs.

In fact, now that I think about it, I've never liked playing as humans in any fantasy games, if given the choice.
Why would I want to play as a species I see everyday, when I can play as something more exotic and imaginative?

The Draenei in WoW are the first thing that come to mind. I mean come on, 8-foot tall, alien-goat people with tentacle beards that are naturally skilled in the use of light-based magic and are built like trucks?
SIGN ME THE F*CK UP!
Why on earth would I want to play as a human when I have THAT as an option?

But yeah, back on point, Humans and Bosmer are my least played races.
That being said though, I've recently started playing an Imperial though, and I've enjoyed my playthrough so far.

What, Argonians are loads of fun to play.
So are Dunmer, Khajiit, Orcs, Altmer, Bretons, Redguards and Nords.

I personally tend not to play Imperials or Bosmer, Imperials because when I started on Oblivion their racial bonuses were compromised, and Bosmer because I prefer Khajiit instead for ranger style characters (I tend to have a theme for the beginning of the game, which disappears by midgame).
