Slighty unsurprising to me, homebrew is the most common. I would like to say I'd do Scarn...but I just don't have the right players for it.
 

I have run FR exclusively for the last 3 years. In the coming months I kick my Dragonstar campaign in gear and I plan on going 50/50 between these two - depending on my own and my players moods of course...

I play in an in-person homebrew and a message-board homebrew. I DM a homebrew 2e email game and a d20 Wheel of Time message board game. But the 2e game should finally wrap up this year, and if I start antother D&D game, it'll probably be in the Realms. I'm not obsessive about the setting one way or another, but it's got widely available, really high-quality material, and as long as my players understand that if a character/event/whatever isn't mentioned in product I own (meaning a 3e gaming product, not a novel or a 2e product) then it doesn't exist/didn't happen in my game, I think it'll work fairly well.
 

I find it ironic that the Forgotten Realms, which is in the lead for least favorite setting, is in second place for most played setting, behind homebrews.

I don't. Past polls have said the exact same thing. D&D is marketed as a game separate from a setting. It has always been that way.

Which is why I find the argument that "FR is the best selling setting" by Dragons editors to be a weak excuse for a deluge of realms stuff in Dragon. It may be the most played single setting, but more people play their own settings.
 

I'm DMing a game in Kara Tur. I loved the OA book, but I'm not sold on Rokugan--i think its a bit too limited for my taste. So, I'm using the setting information from the 1e/2e Kara Tur.
