The win ratio in epic bgs seems to be roughly 50:50, and I've had retarded actions on both sides. Yesterday we lost WG def as horde, I wasn't sure that this was even possible.
No idea about normal BGs, though.
Btw, fun fact, usually half the players are actually playing in mercenary mode (you can check by sharing horde only quests, like kill tremblade in ashram - you will see who is not eligible (they are actual alliance)), so faction imbalance matters even less.
