This depends on how strong a tsunami you mean. Thousands if not tens of thousands of earth quakes occur in the oceans each year, but most would create a 'tsunami' no higher than a millimeter - if that. Some few might create tsunamis in the range of a few centimeters. The rare tsunamis that are meters high occur perhaps once every several decades. Tsunamis that create walls of water many meters high occur perhaps once or twice every one or two hundred years.
It has no amount that can actually be told. It is like saying, "How many times will I get sick this year?" You can't really tell. The only way you can get a real POSSIBLE answer is if you get the mean of all the recorded tsunamis in the past, i don't know, 50 years or something. There you go. That is the best answer I can give you on that question. Me being a sixth grader and all. :D

Tsunamis do not have epicentres. Earthquakes do. Sometimes, as in the case of Japan, earthquakes cause tsunamis.

This is because earthquakes and tremors are common in Japan. That triggers tsunamis to occur
