Current diagnosis rate is 1 in 68 children in the US.
Further statistics are harder to find, there's also question as to how correct the above statistic is. In theory Autism is under-diagnosed due to cultural and social factors such as stigma preventing parents seeking diagnosis, people avoiding diagnosis to avoid discrimination, and poverty preventing access to diagnosis. As it is we don't really know what the true rate of Autism is.

The different forms of autism are thought to overlap considerably. But the fact that there is wide variation in symptoms among children with autism led to the concept of autism spectrum disorder.

What it cumulative incidence rate?
Cumulative incidence is a measure of frequency, as in epidemiology where it is a measure of disease frequency during a period of time. Cumulative incidence is the incidence calculated using a period of time during which all of the individuals in the population are considered to be at risk for the outcome. It is sometimes referred to as the incidence proportion or the attack rate. Cumulative incidence is calculated by the number of new cases during a period divided by the number of people at risk in the population at the beginning of the study.
