Should be around 5% acceptance rate for Yale RD.

742 applicants were admitted to Yale through SCEA. Assuming that 80% (a little low) of these choose to enroll, that's 594 students already in the class of 2013.
Yale likes to have an entering class of around 1300. Put another way, Yale needs about 700 more students for the class of 2013. Since Yale RD has a yield of around 70%, it needs to admit approximately 1000 students.
20368 students applied RD. Add the 2645 students who were deferred from SCEA. That gives a total RD applicant pool of 23013.
1000 students admitted out of 23013 gives an RD admit rate of 4.35%. Delightfully low, eh?
