In other words they aren't a local team in the sense that they live in a different area that is covered by a different "home" Regional.

If some of you are willing to take a shot at your own local Regionals, where you know who's just visiting and who always comes, I could do the remainder. It would be a coarse estimate across most of the events, since we have limited local knowledge, but it could be based on where teams consistently go over the past, say three years.
I'll give this a stab for the two regionals I know best. I'm going to give you three numbers: % away teams (including teams for whom this is not their "home" regional), % rookie (based on current registration data), and % new to the regional (including rookies). That last number accounts for teams that have not been to this regional before, as opposed to teams that use this as their second regional fairly often.

Code:
Regional     %Away    %Rookie     %New
Kansas City   15%        9%        16%
Oklahoma       8%       13%        19%
I should probably mention I counted team 935 as local for both regionals since they are roughly equidistant from both and usually attend both.
