In my experience they don't win as often as the people above say. I think we are all just experiencing our own versions of Group Think.
Personally, not that this has anything to do with anything, but I think Magellan are by far the race that wins the most amongst us.

For what it's worth, I feel like the races fall pretty naturally into 3 tiers. Obviously, your experience may vary, but to me:
1 - Orions, Hydrans, Planta, Magellans
2 - Terrans, Mechanema, Draco, Lyra
3 - Eridani, Rho Indi, Exiles
Not that the tier 3 races are necessarily "worse", but I would say harder to play well. And any actual imbalance is probably less than what can be made up just by luck of the dice/draw, not to mention player skill. (Also - assuming a 4 to 6 player game.)
