I had a bit of a chuckle that apparently 5 out of 50000 opening "(" parentheses weren't closed, but then I saw that 2 out of 12000 "]" brackets weren't opened! What criminal is using these standalone?

Mixing them should be relatively common when denoting intervals, as in "(a, b]" or "[a, b)", so that'd be one cause for being unbalanced. But even so, the math on their usage still doesn't add up.

There is the normal notation for half-open ranges, which would lead to unbalanced brackets.

You won't like bra-ket notation then :)

It seems weird that ∋ would be the sixth-most frequent symbol, while ∈ doesn't figure at all.

Agreed. Even stranger to me is @ as the fourth most common operator, supposedly more common than +. The whole thing seems dubious.

I would suspect that the @ comes from author email addresses. It's not entirely wrong to call that an operator. ;)
