There is probably nothing unique about our solar system. Scientists once thought that planets might be rare, but we're finding that planets appear to be as common as dirt; we know of over 400 "exoplanets" circling other stars.

So far, our technology isn't good enough to locate a planet as small as Earth, but with big planets as common as they are, there's no reason to think that "ordinary" worlds will be any more rare.
